If sk)-high interest rales aiid staggering monthly
payments have been keeping you out of the luxury
apartment you want, we've got your number. 9Vi\ *
Yes. 9^/4% mortgage financing.
The opportunity of a lifetime.
It's no mistake. You can buy a magnifi-
cent apartment at Galaxy today, and get a 30-year
mortgage at 9 Vi% * interest for the first three years.
11 Vi% thereafter — far, far below today's pre\'ailing
rates. With terms like these, a resident's net monthly
payments on a luxury condominium here may actu-
ally be lower than the cost of a cramped rental
apartment in Manhattan!
Or you may prefer a 35-year mortgage
(that's right ... 35 years!) at a phenomenal fixed rate
of just 111/2%.
And whichever of these plans you choose,
you'll need to pay no more than 10% down in most
cases . . . and not a penny in closing costs.
It's your ticket to the home and
lifestyle you've been waiting for.
A sumptuous contemporary residence.
And larger than many you'll find in Manhattan at
twice the price. With over a dozen distinctive designs
to choose from.
Galaxy's riverfront towers give you a
spectacular skyline view of Manhattan that most
New Yorkers see only on postcards. And access to
midtown that's quicker and easier than most Man-
hattanites enjoy. The express bus that stops at
Galaxy's door whisks you there in comfort, in just 22
scheduled minutes.
And every day, you come home to your
own indoor and outdoor pools; your own health spa;
your own enclosed mall with shopping, fine dining
and services; even your own parking garage if you
need it. It's all here in the Galaxy towers — together
with the security and services of a superb staff, includ-
ing your own concierge. It's waiting for you right now.
At Galaxy.

$1.S Trillion for Defense?
By Michael Kramer
Why does Ronald Reagan want to spend
all that money for defense, and what will it
buy? Michael Kramer examines the ration-
ale behind the administration's proposed
military buildup and looks at the shopping
list of weapons. In some cases, he finds,
America's security would be better served
by spending less and thinking more.

Social Stamina
By Marie Brenner
Each night, when corporate types have all
turned in. New Ydrk's most accomplished
writers and intellectuals are out. The Von-
neguts, the Mailers, the Schlesingers are
on the circuit. After a long day at the
typewriter, God knows, they deserve it. But
how productive can they be the morning
after? Do they really enjoy it? Above all,
where do they get their energy? Each, finds
Marie Brenner, has his own little secret.

John Lennon's Killer:
The Nowhere Man
By Craig linger
Six months after the tragic shooting of
John Lennon, Mark David Chapman re-
mains a mystery. Should the trial proceed
as planned, the defense will try to establish
that Chapman was in the grip of delusions
when he killed Lennon. Craig Unger has
retraced Chapman's steps, seeking out
those who knew him to flesh out a portrait
of a man obsessed with lost love, shattered
hero worship, and The Catcher in the Rye.

If you haven't found
Ms. Right yet,
we can otter a few
consolations.
The Concord isn't a place where there's nothing to do but meet people.
We're a place where there's everything to do, and meeting people is just one of
them. And that makes all the difference in the world.
Instead of the awkwardness (and obviousness) of singles' bars, you'll find
yourself in an entirely different climate. One that's a lot less pressurized. Where
you meet people as naturally as you enjoy all the other Concord activities.
Such as playing tennis in one of the largest tennis complexes in the East (40
courts).
Playing golf on a course that's been voted one of the best in America. 45 holes
of golf in all.
Going swimming, nightclubbing, (New show nightly. Never a cover or
minimum.) Or Discoing.
Of course, there are special activities designed just for singles. Such as
get-acquainted parties, and tournaments that have produced some of the worst
volleyball, softball and swimming ever seen. (The participants were having too
much fun to mind).
And you can do all that for less than you thought. We're an entirely self-
contained vacation resort. So we can offer a lot for a little . . . right up to and
including three fabulous meals a day (Full American Plan) at no extra charge.
Come to the Concord. You may just go home with a little black book full of new
phone numbers. And one of these may just be Ms. Right.
But if not, just think of all the fun you'll have being consoled.
More vacation for your money

For years foreign car manufacturers have
boasted about their gas mileage, standard
features and interiors. But now, there's a
car that beats the imports at their own
game. Cimarron by Cadillac.
As the chart shows, Cimarron has
features the imports have, plus Cadillac
comfort and convenience, with reclining
body-contoured bucket seats and
perforated leather seating areas. Cimarron
has front-wheel drive, just as the Cadillac
Eldorado and Seville do. It comes with
Cadillac's exclusively tuned, road-hugging
touring suspension and a four-speed
manual transmission including overdrive.
What's more, Cimarron behaves like a
civilized car should. Nimble . . . easy to
maneuver . . . with a smooth, refined ride.
If you've been thinking about buying an
import, it's time to re-think your decision.
It's time for Cimarron.
Due to limited initial production,
Cimarron is not available at all Cadillac
dealers at this time.

LETTERS
Crime and Pmiishmenl
NICHOLAS PILEGGI S ARTICLE I 'lNSIDE
Rikers Island," June 8] is one of the best
unintentional endorsements for capital
punishment I have ever read. Recently,
my boyfriend was murdered by an indi-
vidual who is presently awaiting trial at
Rikers. The crime my boyfriend com-
mitted was not having enough money to
appease the muggers. He got the death
penalty. One of the muggers got away,
and the other's sentence is to live in a
playground full of sex and drugs. Yet I
am asked to ponder this criminal's frus-
tration and rage at being isolated in jail
and his growing insecurity about the
loyalty of his wife or girl friend. Perhaps
I am lucky to not have to worry about
the possible disloyalty of my boyfriend.

I AM A CORRECTION OFFICER AT RIKERS is-
land. I found the article to be a very
accurate description of conditions on
"the rock." The correction officers have
long been at odds with the adminis-
tration over the lack of control of the
prisoners. There can be no "correction"
when the same antisocial acts occur in
prison as outside.

ON SATURDAYS AND SUNDAYS THE "INFA-
mous" 101 bus is so crowded that people
who live in the Astoria/Steinway area
very often cannot even use the bus be-
cause there is no room on it, they are
afraid of using it, or they prefer not to
endure the abuse that getting on it often
involves. Why is it not possible to have
some of the weekend 101 buses go to
Rikers while others stop at the Steinway
Transit Company depot at 20th Avenue?

IT'S GREAT TO BE POPULAR— I THINK. WE
must be doing something right. One-
third of all metropolitan-area families
are doing business with us. Apparently,
it's not so much our smiling faces as our

million transactions they're handling a
year. So I guess we'll have to work even
harder on the people side. We hear you.
But Citibank isn't one big computer that
can be programmed overnight. We're
human, and it takes time to get up to
speed on the people side. We're working
on it.

From Rusaia With Love
IN GRACE LICHTENSTEIN'S ARTICLE "A LIT-
tle Russia Grows in Brooklyn" (June 1]
we are introduced to self-described Rus-
sian-speaking Russians from the
Ukraine. This may distort the reader's
impression of the integrity of the Ukrain-
ian habitat, where some 35 million
people consider Ukrainian their mother
tongue. In the Ukraine there are also
about 9 million who profess to be
Russian-speaking Russians.
The complexity of the history of this
region cannot be unraveled here, but
NEW YORK/JUNE 22, 1981
Co-
because historical Russian Muscovy, by
force, made it a crime to publish, print,
disseminate, and teach in the Ukrainian
language, the language continued te-
naciously as a unifying element in the
battle for national identity and ethnici-
ty. Suffice it to say that no self-respecting
Ukrainian refers to his motherland as
"Russia" unless he is indeed an ethnic
Russian or a Russified Russophile who is
reinforcing the cultural and territorial
expansion of the Russian empire.

selves and their children. They make no
demands for welfare or bilingual educa-
tion. They seek no subsidized housing.
They don't burn down their apartment
buildings to get better furniture from the
city dole. From what i recall before I fled

a hint from these Russian-Americans.

WE CONSIDER OURSELVES FORTUNATE TO
have many of these Soviet emigres work-
ing in various capacities at Maimonides
Medical Center. We can also confirm
Ms. Lichtenstein's poignant observation
about how ardently the newfound op-
portunity to practice their religion is
embraced. Vladimir, the ten-year-old
she mentions as having had his bris (rit-
ual circumcision) at Maimonides, is one
of scores of men and boys who have
come to us for this procedure, which we
have been able to provide at no charge
through the generosity of concerned
physicians and community organiza-
tions (Tuesday has been set aside as bris
day). Ms. Lichtenstein has given a vivid
portrait of people in the process of re-
alizing the religious and economic free-
doms that we take for granted. I would
only add that the vigor with which they
pursue their dreams enriches us all.

to finally come across an article in the

in tone toward Yoko Ono Lennon ["A

maligned through the years that I can
understand her confusion at not "being

ever, her talent, her sense of humor, and
her class have always been evident.

The Bottom Line/ Jack Egan
PAN AM*S
STEEP DIVE
Seeing Red
"PAN AM IS A FLYING PENN CENTRAL." SAYS
one longtime Wall Street observer of the
beleaguered airline.
The statement may be too strong. De-
spite recent losses and the dismissal of
over 100 members of its executive ranks.
Pan American World Airways is far from
possible bankruptcy. And it is nowhere
close to the financial brink it faced
in the mid-1970s, when, in an act
of sheer desperation, the airline
negotiated a $300-million invest-
ment from the late shah of Iran.
Luckily for Pan Am, the shah's
ministers found they had over-
extended themselves, and the deal
fell through. Otherwise, Pan Am
today might be owned by Iran.
But recent record losses from its
airline operations have again
raised questions about the long-
term outlook for one of the
proudest names in commercial-
aviation history.
"It is hard to see when Pan Am
will actually return to profitabil-
ity," says Alfred Norling, airline
analyst for Kidder, Peabody.
Norling estimates that Pan
Am's net loss for 1981 will be be-
tween $100 million and $125 mil-
lion, and he says he is being op-
timistic at that. That would be the
largest red-ink total in the compa-
ny's history. A return to profitabil-
ity would require Pan Am to get
lucky on everything: Business
would have to pick up substantial-
ly, and fuel prices would have to
remain stable. But the chaotic
conditions that caused interna-
tional carriers to lose $2.5 billion
Am racked up a staggering $87.8-million
operating loss, to which $136.8 million
in debt-load interest had to be added.
Only the sale of its Park Avenue tower
for a one-time capital gain of nearly $300-
million allowed Pan Am to report a net
profit of $80 million for last year.
In the first quarter of 1981. the airline
had a loss of $1 14.5 million. While Pan
Am normally is in the red during the first
M«n on Mm spot: Pan Am chairman William Seawell.
in 1980 seem likely to persist this year;
another large loss — $2.3-billion worth —
is projected.
From 1970 through 1976 Pan Am ran
up seven straight deficits, totaling $277-
million. The airline managed to dig itself
out of the hole in the next few years:
indeed, in 1978 it earned a record $118.8-
million, partly as a result of a debenture
exchange.
But since then Pan Am's fortunes
have reversed direction. Rising fuel costs
hit the airline particularly hard, its inter-
national business turned sour, and Pan
Am's acquisition of National Airlines
over a year ago did not produce any of
the benefits a domestic route system was
supposed to provide.
Last year was. in fact, a disaster: Pan
part of the year, the deficit was the larg-
est ever recorded for a single quarter.
The figure sent a shock through the
company and set off the recent publi-
cized round of corporate firings.
A strenuous effort is being mounted
to restore the airline's health, but
analysts think Pan Am has only limited
room to maneuver.
"They're in a lousy business, and they
have mediocre management," says one
analyst. "Seawell runs the place as if it
were the air force."
Pan Am chairman William T. Seawell,
a former air-force general, has guided
the company through the years of tur-
bulence since 1972. Though company
insiders insist that Seawell — whose dis-
tinguished, gray-haired good looks
make him seem like the prototype of an
aging Pan Am pilot — continues to enjoy
the full support of the board, outsiders
believe that the chairman will inevitably
be forced out if Pan Am's finances and
operations don't improve soon.
"There's a good chance Seawell will
get canned," said one analyst who de-
clined to be named. "Pan Am's prob-
lems just won't go away, and I see some
major changes in management."
The analyst picks Pan Am's senior
vice-president for marketing, Wil-
liam Waltrip, as the logical suc-
cessor.
Seawell, who had to face angry
shareholders for five hours at the
company's annual meeting, in
May, has not been available for
questions since then.
One specific point of criticism
was Seawell's decision to acquire
the Miami-based National Air-
lines, a move that is forcing Pan
Am to pay more in annual interest
than National ever earned in its
heyday.
At the same time, none of Pan
Am's expected cost economies
have materialized. Integration of
the two airlines' personnel came
extremely slowly, and until recent-
ly. National pilots refused to fly
Pan Am routes — and vice versa.
Pan Am was inept in puttmg
together the reservation services
of the two airlines. During a single
week last November, Pan Am res-
ervation agents failed to answer
154,000 calls, losing untold mil-
lions of dollars in revenues. The
attempt to mesh the schedules of
the two carriers led to long delays
in takeoffs and landings because
the connections were made too tight.
The timing of the purchase was also
very unfortunate, coming, as it did,
when the domestic airline business went
into the tank. On top of that, Pan Am's
hopes of selling a large part of Na-
tional's fleet of airplanes have been un-
dermined because the market for used
airplanes has gone soft. And many of
National's planes were DC-lOs, which
are now less desirable because of contin-
uing passenger resistance to the planes
following the calamitous 1979 Chicago
air crash. The company currently has
five DC-lOs that it is unable to sell.
"The National acquisition was a mis-
take, and Pan Am's international prob
lems are ongoing," says Michael Armel-
lino, airline analyst for Goldman, Sachs.

"There's a real question whether, long-
term, Pan Am should be in the airline
business. Instead of buying National,
they could have used their financial
capability to buy something in an area
where the profits would be higher."
Trans World Airlines, for example,
has managed to use the ample cash flow
generated by its airline to diversify the
company substantially, and now earns a
comfortable profit, which cushions its
airline operations.
In another ironic development. Pan
Am decided to lease the National termi-
nal at JFK Airport to TWA, which ad-
joins the former National space. TWA
has rented extra gates to other airlines,
which are. in turn, feeding their business
into TWA's international routes. TWA is
therefore gaining market share at the
expense of Pan Am.
To be fair to Pan Am, it should be
noted that a large part of its problem
results from United States -government
policies on international aviation, and
their inconsistency.
Though the domestic airline industry
was deregulated in 1978, the Carter ad-
ministration kept the lid on internation-
al fares. Carter wanted to force other
nations' airlines to become more com-
petitive on pricing — to move away from
fare setting by cartel. But many interna-
tional carriers are government-owned
and -subsidized and will continue to
operate at a loss, no matter what the
competitive conditions in the market-
place happen to be. The result has been
to keep fares lower on both the North
Atlantic and Pacific routes than they
would otherwise be.
In addition, the Civil Aeronautics
Board in the Carter years certified a
number of domestic airlines to fly direct-
ly to European destinations from such
cities as Atlanta and Dallas. In turn,
reciprocal air rights were granted to oth-
er international airlines to serve these
cities from abroad. This has diminished
the importance of New York as the ma-
jor departure point for Europe, although
this city remains Pan Am's major
gateway.
Pan Am's most immediate challenge
is to control its labor costs. The airline
has asked its employees to agree to a
contribution plan that would reduce
current salaries, and also all increases
through 1983. by 10 percent. (The em-
ployees would be paid back from future
airline earnings.) The immediate re-
sponse from the labor unions has been
cool.
Pan Am's sale of its Grand Central
building provided the company with a
large but temporary infusion of cash.
This gives Pan Am a few years' breathing
space during which to recover. But if
operating losses continue at the same
level through 1982, Pan Am may again
find its very existence in jeopardy. ^

Toko Taps Photographer Who Snapped Lennon With His Killer
1
y
Teaming up; Ono . . .
PAUL GORESH. THE YOUNG
Beatles fan who photo-
graphed John Lennon with
his accused killer, Mark
David Chapman, said last
week that he's been paid
"once in a while" for work
for the late-star's widow.
The 21-year-old amateur
photographer may testify for
the prosecution if Chap-
man's case goes to trial (see
"lohn Lennon's Killer: The
Nowhere Man," page 30). In
that event, one source told
New York, the defense may
use Goresh's dealings with
Yoko Ono to try to discredit
his testimony. "They would
suggest he's not a disin-
terested witness," the
source said.
Ono apparently got in
touch with Goresh after she
saw his picture of Lennon
with Chapman on the day of
the shooting.
"She said the photo said
everything about how gul-
lible lohn was," explained
Goresh, who claims to have
taken about 200 pictures of
the singer in the course of
trailing him for two years.
Ono chose a Goresh pho-
tograph of her crossing a
New York street with Len-
non for the cover of Len-
non's recently released sin-
gle, "Watching the Wheels,"
said a source who worked
on the record.
In addition, Goresh
claimed Ono had asked him
to collaborate with leading
Beatles photographers on a
photo essay about her late
husband and has been "real-
ly generous" to him.
Goresh could be an im-
portant prosecution witness
because he has alleged
. . . and Beatles fan Goresh.
Chapman warned him, "You
might not see him [Lennon]
again," shortly before the
shooting.
"Yoko had no idea they
might be putting him on as a
witness," said an acquain-
tance of Ono's.
French Cafe 1 , Brown-Baggers 0
A NEW FRENCH CAFE IS Dis-
placing brown-baggers on
the public terraces at Olym-
pic Tower, and some New
Yorkers are furious.
"The tower's developers
were allowed to build mil-
lions of dollars' worth of ex-
tra space in return for creat-
ing this public area, and
now the city is giving the
store away to these charac-
ters," charged William H.
Whyte, the planning con-
sultant who's a frequent
critic of the city's midfown-
zoning policies.
Similar protests were
lodged by Municipal Art
Society activists and by peo-
ple who used to eat lunch at
public tables on terraces
overlooking the waterfall in
the building's pedestrian
arcade. The tables have been
displaced by the new cafe,
Delices La Cote Basque.
The cafe is considered an
improvement by the city
planning department. The
city buildings department
previously had threatened to
revoke the Fifth Avenue
tower's occupancy permit
unless its owners — Onassis-
family interests — enlivened
the arcade.
"But at the same time the
cafe was put in, they were
14 NEW YORK/ JUNE 22. 1981
supposed to install sub-
stitute public seating and
signs saying that other
amenities like toilets were
available," added a plan-
ning-department official.
"Putting in the cafe first has
ill
"Public" «pace; Cashiered.
to be bad judgment on their
part."
Alan Grossman, a spokes-
man for the building's
owners, said new public
benches are coming along.
"I think the city will be ex-
tremely pleased with the re-
sult," he said. "We've gone a
little bit overboard."
Felker Phasing Ont of 'Tonight'
THE LATEST NEWS FROM THE
embattled Daily News:
□ Clay Felker is talking to
News executives about leav-
ing his job as editor of the
paper's Toni^t edition.
□ Some observers are
predicting the News will
lose $17 million this year
and $30 million in 1982.
□ The Tonight edition,
launched last year with the
hope that it would sell
300,000 copies daily, has a
circulation of about 100,000
and has cost the News more
than $10 million so far.
□ Circulation at the Sun-
day News has dropped by
200,000 (to 1,995,000) in the
last year.
A close acquaintance of
Felker, the founder of New
York Magazine, said he
"probably will continue as
an editor of the Neivs, but
not of Tonight. As of July, his
function would effectively
be that of a consultant."
The acquaintance
claimed that Felker wants
out of Tonigjht simply be-
cause he's eager to start a
"new venture" — perhaps
one "along the lines" of the
"pennysaver" publication he
already owns in California.
BY SHARON CHURCHER
As for Tonig^it, it's sup-
posedly testing the patience
of Chicago's Tribune Com-
pany, the News's parent.
"The wolf is at the door, and
there's going to be a lot of
pressure from Chicago to
fold the Tonight edition,"
said one businessman close
to the company.
According to one esti-
mate, News payroll costs are
set to rise by as much as $18-
million in the next twelve
months. Given that, one ob-
server called the $30-mil-
lion-loss prediction for 1982
"conservative," if Tonight
survives.
News vice-president and
marketing director Les
Bridges, however, claimed
both the $17-million and
S30-million figures were
much too high. "We are hav-
ing a tough time, but you're
out of the ball park," he
said. The executive said that
to cut costs, space in Tonight
is being trimmed and the
edition's sales halted in
Westchester County.
Asked about rumors that
Tonight will be axed after
Christmas, Bridges said, "It
surely will be around to the
end of the year, and we are
certainly hopeful it will be
around next year."

Channel 7 Ganght Boasting
THOt'GH STUNG BY THE RE-
cent disclosure that phony
letters from "viewers" were
being used on some of its
shows, WABC-TV has con-
tinued to make one proud
claim. "Eyewitness News is
now recognized by both the
Associated Press and United
Press International as New
York State's best regularly
scheduled newscast," the
station has been saying at
the end of its evening broad-
casts.
Last week, however, it
emerged that Channel 7's
boast was misleading.
UPI president Roderick
Beaton and A.P. president
and general manager Keith
Fuller told New York their
organizations don't rate tel-
evision newscasts.
The WABC announce-
ment apparently refers to
awards the station has won
in the last year from two
groups of broadcasters —
one made up of members of
A.P., the other of clients of
UPI. The awards were for
the best local newscast in
New York City.
Following New York's in-
quiry, the station dropped
one word in its claim last
week, to say, "Eyewitness
News is now recognized by
both the Associated Press
and United Press Interna-
tional as New York's best
regularly scheduled news-
cast."
Go-op Picks Bone Over Poodle
filed suit in New York Su-
preme Court to stop the
eviction. Their poodle
weighs only four pounds
and "will be a very little
dog" all her life, their court
papers say.
Invoking what could be
termed a grand-dog princi-
ple (the canine equivalent of
a grandfather clause), they
say dogs were allowed when
they moved in, nine years
ago, with Phoebe's prede-
cessor, who's now in dog
heaven.
Attorneys for the man-
agement of Imperial House,
whose residents include
Liza Minnelli and Howard
Cosell, claim a ban on bring-
ing in new pets was imposed
in 1977.
They added, however,
that because of the dispute,
tenant-owners will be polled
next week on whether they
wish to rethink the ban.

Role Ghange Seen at Fox
A HOLLYWOOD PRODUCER
who set up an independent
movie company with Marvin
Davis shortly before the oil-
man bought Twentieth Cen-
tury-Fox may be in line for a
major role at the studio.
Mace Neufeld, whose
production credits include
The Omen and The Frisco
Kid, has become "very, very
tight" with Davis, said one
acquaintance.
A friend of Davis's told
New York that Neufeld is
expected to have at least an
unofficial role at Fox, and
that it's possible he'll re-
place Alan Hirschfield as
vice-chairman. Hirschfield
and Fox chairman and presi-
dent Dennis Stanfill have
been reported at odds.
A spokesman for Davis
wouldn't comment on
Neufeld's future with Fox.
George Lncas*s Gase of Nerves
Shooting fto/dors: Lucas, director Steven Spielberg.
IVSJ BEFORE THE OPENING OF
his latest movie blockbuster,
Raiders of the Lost Ark, exec-
utive producer George
Lucas is said to have
suffered a costly attack of
review-phobia.
"He was nervous the mov-
ie was going to be a flop," a
source claimed last week.
He persuaded Paramount's
vice-president for national
advertising, Tom Cam-
panella, to increase the pro-
motional budget to $8 mil-
lion, the source said.
According to one studio
insider, that amounted to a
hike of about $2 million —
which might seem a bit su-
perfluous now that the mov-
ie's become a hit with both
the critics and the public.
Campanella, however, in-
sisted that the higher outlay
was Paramount's idea.
Lucas — who reportedly
started work on Raiders
while hiding from what he
feared would be "dis-
astrous" reviews of his pre-
vious blockbuster, Star Wars
— wasn't available for com-
ment. Said a colleague,
"Paramount (boosted) the
budget to assure all of us,
including George, that the
movie got a good send-off."
Trendsetters Throw 'Oroovy ' Party
Tho shape of thing* to come? Woodstock redux.
PLT OFF BY THE MASS-MARKET-
ing excesses of punk and
New Wave, some vanguard
New Yorkers are turning
backward to create another
fad: neo-psychedelia.
With teenagers showing a
growing interest in LSD, the
I Ching, and flower power,
art students and other
scene-makers recently as-
sembled at the formerly
punkish Club 57, on St.
Marks Place, for one of the
biggest black-light be-ins
since the late sixties.
They painted themselves
in Day-Glo colors, talked
about chewing on magic
mushrooms, and listened to
classic sixties bands like the
lefferson Airplane and the
•Mamas and Papas. "I'm just
feeding my head," one
partygoer was heard to say.
Another told a reporter,
"I saw the movie Woodstock
three times, but I can't be-
lieve you were actually
there. WTiat was it like?"
"Groovy," the reporter
said. — Henry Post

$1.5 Trillion
For Defense?
By Michael Kramer
How to Understand Reagan's Big Buildup
RONALD REAGAN WANTS TO SPEND SI. 5 TRILLION OVER
the next five years to build up America's military
machine, the largest increase during peacetime
in the nation's history. A good deal of this
expenditure is undoubtedly necessary. Some of it,
though, is questionable, and some of it — like a one-year
appropriation of $89 million for military bands, more than the
entire budget of the National Endowment for the Arts — is
nonsense.
One and one half trillion dollars. A lot of money. A big
number. "I've been trying ... to think of a way to illustrate
how big a trillion is," Reagan said at the beginning of his
economic address last February. "If you had a stack of $1,000
bills in your hand only four inches high, you would be a
millionaire. A trillion dollars would be a stack of $1,000 bills
67 miles high."
Get the picture? Still having trouble? Let me try. If you had
one and a half trillion single dollar bills and you laid them end
to end starting at the sun, they would stretch past the earth
and then past .Mars. If you then tried to pick them up at the
rate of one each second and you worked 40 hours a week, it
would take you 201,000 years to do the job.
So the United States is about to spend a lot of bucks to
increase its defense — and to project itself as a world power.
To pay for the buildup, a wide range of domestic programs
are being cut. The cities will lose a quarter of their federal aid.
At least a million people will lose their food stamps. Federal
support for education, dependent children, mass transit,
subsidized housing. Medicaid, nutrition, the arts, jobs in
general, job training and welfare, legal services for the poor,
black-lung benefits for coal miners — all these and more will
lose money in order to provide for the common defense.
Two questions are obvious. Why? And for what?
To begin to answer the first question, one must understand
Ronald Reagan's very coherent world view. To the president,
the United States is still locked in a life-and-death struggle
with the Soviet Union (with America, in Lincoln's phrase, still
obligated to play a divine role as "the last best hope of earth").
The enemy used to be worldwide Communism, no matter its

form. But ever since America found itself becoming friendly
with selected Communist states, like China, which in turn
have become further and further alienated from Moscow, the
threat has been refined. Nowadays, the administration is
talking almost exclusively about Russia, and its policy is one
of anti-Sovietism.
That anyone might not comprehend the threat is, in Rea-
gan's view, incomprehensible. "Let us not delude ourselves,"
says the president. "The Soviet Union underlies all the unrest
that's going on. If they weren't engaged in this game of
dominoes, there wouldn't be any hot spots in the world."
To MEET THE SOVIET ADVANCE. THE PRESIDENT IS, IN
effect, resurrecting "containment," the policy that
described America's stance during the early years
of the Cold War. As a policy, containment has
many advantages, and foremost among them is
simplicity. Containment seeks to meet the Russians ev-
erywhere, and by so doing to create so much trouble for them
that they eventually collapse. Unfortunately, containment
carries with it some unsettling fSTllout.
First, it aligns the United States with some unsavory ele-
ments — dictatorial states that we embrace simply because
they share our anti-Sovietism.
Second, because containment challenges the Soviets ev-
erywhere, Vietnams are possible.
And, third, containment can create problems with our
allies (and others), who sometimes perceive only regional
strife where we see an extension of the larger East-West
conflict. (Most recently, for example, the Saudis refused to
follow our lead in identifying the Soviets as the greatest threat
to peace in the Middle East. To the Saudis, that distinction
belongs to Israel.)
Despite these troublesome aspects, containment Reagan-
style is the order of the day. And certainly the major premise
is correct: The Soviets are an expansionist state, with an
erratic record of betrayal and excess. If unchecked — and only
America can do the checking — the Russians will surely grab
whatever they can.
To contain the Soviets, the president's prescription

requires dramatic military spending for three reasons.
First, in many areas the American military is on the skids.
"We're in greater danger today," says Reagan, "than we were
the day after Pearl Harbor. Our military is absolutely in-
capable today of defending this country."
Second, in Reagan's view the mere fact that America is
spending more for armaments while cutting back elsewhere
creates the "impression" that the United States is serious
about containing the Soviets and that it is willing to sacrifice
to do so.
There is a problem here, though. When a policy of spend-
ing increases and weapons acquisition is undertaken mainly
Too hoavy: There's a shortage of planes capable of carrying the massive M- 1 tank.
for symbolic purposes — to create an impression rather than to
meet rational needs — there can never be enough. The spend-
ing spiral must continue; more weapons, newer weapons,
"better" weapons must be purchased all the time. If one
accepts this thesis — as the Reagan administration seems to
have done, since it has vowed to increase spending without
detailing where the money will go — then the arms race may
well continue forever.
Not so, says the president, and in countering this argument
his third reason for increasing defense outlays becomes clear.
"The card that's been missing in [the arms-reduction] nego-
tiations," says Reagan, "has been the possibility of an arms
race." In Reagan's mind, Leonid Brezhnev, or his successor,
"will be far more inclined to negotiate in good faith if he
knows that the United States is engaged in building up its
military." And, says the president, the Russians will do so
because their economy will be strained by the competition.
BUT THERE IS A DANGER HERE AS WELL. ANYONE WHO
knows the Soviets knows that the Russian economy
really operates on two levels. The first, the
domestic economy, is close to being a shambles.
Shortages abound, so much so that even Brezhnev
has admitted that "management methods haven't yet been
brought to a level meeting contemporary standards."
The other Russian economy works for the military, and it
works exceedingly well. So a country in trouble can cause
trouble. And as the domestic economy falters, there is in-
creasing pressure on the Soviet leadership to divert the
people's attention to the (largely contrived) foreign military
crises for which it claims priority: "We must tighten our belts.
20

comrades. The imperialists are everywhere." Thus Russia's
strength (its military) can be viewed as less dangerous than its
weakness (the Soviet economy). The next generation of Soviet
leaders will have to deal with the failures of Marx and Lenin,
the failure to provide a thriving homeland — and that require-
ment may generate the greatest attention diverter of all, war.
It is obviously too early to predict a revolution of freedom in
the Soviet Union. But the years ahead will surely witness
profound, and perhaps violent, change in Russia — and all
mankind will be less secure because of it. For whatever Russia
is or is not, it is far too powerful a state to suffer shocks and
upheavals without endangering the world.
None of these present and potential
problems seems to bother Ronald Reagan,
and there has been only minor (although
growing) criticism of his plans to boost
military spending. Which brings us to the
second big question: What will all the mon-
ey be used for? And the best way, perhaps,
to get at that question is to ask others that
incorporate some common — and often in-
correct — assumptions about America's
military vulnerability to both nuclear and
conventional war.
Is the United States vulnerable
to a surprise nuclear attack?
"The Soviet Union," says Ronald Rea-
gan, "believes that nuclear war is possible,
winnable, and survivable."
It's called the "nightmare scenario," and
it goes like this: Sometime in the mid-
eighties, the Soviet Union achieves the abil-
ity to knock out 90 percent of America's
land-based force of 1,054 ICBM's. At the
same time, the Russians destroy a majority of our B-52
bombers and wipe out about 40 percent of the 41 -ship
American nuclear-missile submarine fleet, since approx-
imately 18 of the subs are always in port for repair or crew
rotation.
Even assuming such a blow, the United States would
clearly retain enough retaliatory power to obliterate most of
the Soviet Union. This is so because, as limmy Carter said in
his 1979 State of the Union address, just one nuclear-missile
submarine possesses enough force "to destroy every large-
and medium-size city in the Soviet Union."
But the nightmare scenario contemplates that the Ameri-
can president will absorb the Russian first strike without
retaliating. It assumes that the destruction of most of our
nuclear arsenal can be accomplished with as few as 2 million
civilian deaths, and that the United States might therefore
choose not to retaliate lest the remaining Soviet missiles then
kill 100 million or so additional Americans in a second strike.
Thus, according to this scenario, the United States would
surrender, if only because, under the circumstances, Russia's
terms might not appear all that onerous — say, American
acquiescence in a Soviet takeover of the Middle East or
Western Europe, rather than a Russian occupation of the
United States itself.
To believe in this scenario is to argue for an expanded
nuclear capability, the theory being that an increased nuclear
force, and more innovative basing options, would act as a
deterrent by reducing Russia's ability to accomplish a suc-
cessful first strike.
Arguing against the nightmare scenario — and its implied
requirement that we bolster our nuclear capacity — are a set
Coi
but technology has become the new Maginot Line. .
of facts, rather than assertions, regarding nuclear weapons
and their use.
First is the matter of accuracy. If the Russian missiles (or
ours, in a reverse of the nightmare scenario) are off-target,
then the ICBM force will not be destroyed — and many mil-
lions of civilians will die. The best evidence suggests that this
would indeed be the case, that the missiles of both super-
powers would not operate accurately in a war situation, and
that, most probably, they can never be made to do so with any
reasonable degree of confidence.
Here's the problem: The stated accuracies for both Soviet
and American missiles are measures that have been de-
veloped over the test ranges of both nations
— which fire their missiles on east-west
courses. As in conventional artillery prac-
tice, where a large number of shells have to
be discharged to perfect flight paths, it
takes the firing of a number of missiles over
time to hit close enough to "kill" an enemy
missile in its fortified silo.
In real life, however — that is, in war —
both sides will fire their missiles north to
south over the North Pole. Obviously,
neither side has practiced firing over this
course, since that would require lobbing
dummy missiles onto enemy territory. And
without the data that can only be gleaned
from such "actual" flights, it's more than
likely that the missiles of war, unlike the
missiles of practice, will land far from their
targets.
"Ballistic" warheads are boosted into or-
bit and then fall freely back to earth. As
they fall, they are affected by numerous
gravitational, atmospheric, and weather-
generated anomalies that always throw
warheads off their intended trajectories. Over a practice
course these anomalies can be carefully charted and pre-
dicted. But over the war courses (north to south) these natural
forces cannot be predicted in advance — without actual prac-
tice flights. This is because the earth is not a perfect sphere,
so gravity varies. The atmosphere is not uniformly dense, so
friction varies too. And no one can foresee the weather that
will affect the missiles if they ever fly.
THE NET EFFECT OF THESE UNCERTAINTIES IS UN-
known, but it would surely be startling. For exam-
ple, a wind of just 30 miles an hour at ground level
(to say nothing of the far greater wind speeds
found in the jet stream) could throw a warhead off
course by 1,320 feet — enough to cause it to fall outside the
"lethal" radius within which it must land in order to "kill" a
Soviet target in a fortified silo. "In a real-world combat
situation," says defense analyst Pierre Sprey, "the ICBM's of
both sides could be 'off by as much as twenty miles."
So nothing has changed since 1974, when Defense Secre-
tary lames Schlesinger, in congressional testimony since
declassified, conceded this crucial point:
I believe there is some misunderstanding about the degree of
reliability and accuracy of missiles. ... It is impossible for either
side to acquire the degree of accuracy that would give them a high
confidence first strike, because we will not know what the actual
accuracy would be like in a real world context. As you know, we
have acquired from the Western Test Range a fairly precise ac-
curacy, but in the real world we would have to fly from operational
bases to targets in the Soviet Union. The parameters of the flight
from the Western Test Range are not really very helpful in de-
termining those accuracies to the Soviet Union. We can never know
what degrees of accuracy would be achieved in the real world.
And, Schlesinger added tellingly,
the point I would like to make is that if you have any degradation
in operational accuracy, American [retaliatory] capability goes to
the dogs very quickly. We know that, and the Soviets should know
it, and that is one of the reasons that I can publicly state that neither
side can acquire a high confidence first strike capability. I want the
President of the United States to know that for all the future years,
and I want the Soviet leadership to know that for all the future
years.
Now, even assuming that Schlesinger and Sprey and a host
Too limllod; Ground reflectors could foil the cruise missile's navigation system.
of other experts are wrong, and that the accuracy anomalies
could somehow be accounted for in advance, two other very
significant problems remain.
The first is reliability — the question of how many missiles,
after years of sitting in their silos supposedly ready to go at
a moment's notice, will actually get out of those silos when
commanded to fly. On this point, it is interesting to note that
the United States has never successfully launched a Minute-
man ICBM from an operational silo. After four unsuccessful
attempts, the last in 1965, the air force quit trying. Today, a
Minuteman is taken from its silo, trucked cross-country to
Vandenberg Air Force Base, in California, and tested there.
Assuming, though, that the missiles do get off the ground,
and that they fly accurately, there is the problem of
"fratricide" — which is to say that no one can predict the effect
of the first nuclear warhead on those that follow. Surely,
however, the effect would be adverse. The blast, debris,
electromagnetic pulse, and radiation of the first warhead will,
as physicist Richard Garwin says, "change the atmosphere
and induce winds," and in so doing, the targeted area could
be blocked off to subsequent missiles for as long as 30
minutes. So, says Garwin, echoing Schlesinger, "you can
never be certain that it would work [as planned] on the first
strike, and unless you're certain, you're not going to do it."
All of this suggests, in the words of Reagan's army
secretary, John Marsh, that "in the spectrum of warfare,
nuclear war is the least likely occurrence," and that Dwight
Eisenhower was correct when he calmly said of America's
nuclear arsenal as it faced the first Russian buildup, "What
you want is enough, a thing that is adequate. A deterrent has
no added power once it has become completely adequate. . . .

There comes a time . . . when a lead is not significant in the
defensive arrangements of a country. If you get enough of a
particular type of weapon, I doubt that it is particularly
important to have a lot more of it."
But Eisenhower's successor — like Ronald Reagan twenty
years later — owed his election, at least in part, to his near-
hysterical articulation of the notion that "enough" was not
enough. "Let us make certain," said John Kennedy, "that so
long as the unbridled power of Communism exists, we will
have in fact as well as word a military establishment not only
second to none, but first. ... I mean first — period."
Ronald Reagan hasn't used the same words, but who can
say he hasn't expressed, and doesn't hold, the same view —
and this despite the fact that in the realm of nuclear war, at
least, we are damned well off.
Not well enough off. says the president. Enter, then, the
administration's proposals for a new generation of nuclear
delivery vehicles — the MX missile, the B-l and Stealth bomb-
ers, and the cruise missile, each of which is expensive and, as
far as their missions are concerned, troublesome.
Briefly, the proposed MX missile is a supposedly more
accurate version of the Minuteman 111. In land-based mode,
the 200 MX missiles are supposed to make a Soviet first strike
more difficult because the real missiles will be hidden among
4.600 empty silos. Construction of the .MX complex would tie
up 40 percent of the nation's concrete capacity for three
years. More land would be moved than was excavated for the
Panama Canal, and 10,000 miles of roads would be built. (By
way of comparison, the entire Federal Interstate Highway
system consists of only 42.500 miles of roads.) Estimates of the
cost of this program range between S35 billion and $100-
billion.
limmy Carter called the MX program the "craziest" thing
he had ever heard, and even Defense Secretary Caspar Wein-
berger has said "it's got an element of the unreal in it. There's
no question about that." To "kill" the MX's, the Soviets would
have to commit approximately 9,200 warheads — assuming
accuracy, of course. But, assuming accuracy, the Soviets could
target the MX successfully by simply increasing their warhead
production.
THE 244 B-l BOMBERS. PROPOSED AS A REPLACE-
ment for the aging B-52s (some of which are older
than their pilots), would cost at least $26.6 billion.
Designed to penetrate Soviet air defenses, the B-l,
says Pierre Sprey, is too large and unmaneuverable
for its mission — which would require flying extremely close
to the ground, "under" Russian radar.
A Stealth bomber, designed with curved features and
special alloys to "absorb" an enemy radar's searching signal
and thus remain "invisible," could not be ready before the
mid-1990s. Harold Brown. )immy Carter's defense secretary,
claims Stealth is "a major technological breakthrough ... ten
times sexier than we've let on." But others, including physicist
Edward Teller, warn that there are simple and obvious
measures the Soviets could take to counter Stealth. One such
measure, says Pentagon consultant Thomas Amlie, would be
simply to increase the power of the radar.
At $1.2 million a copy, the cruise missile is the cheapest
answer yet to increasing America's nuclear punch. A small,
torpedo-size drone with a range of 1,500 miles, the cruise
could be launched far from Soviet air defenses by the B-52,
the B-l, and even a converted 747.
Sounds terrific. But would it work? Very simply, this is how
the missile is supposed to operate: The cruise flies toward its
target at a low altitude, tracing its course by a navigation
system and a computerized radar altimeter that matches the
22 NEW YORK/JUNE 22, 1981
ground to a contour map that has been stored in its electronic
brain. As the data from the ground is matched to the map, the
cruise, unlike a free-falling ballistic warhead, makes its own
corrections as it flies to its objective.
There are four problems with the cruise. First, as the
General Accounting Office has pointed out, the missile has
thus far worked well only at altitudes so high that it would be
in easy reach of Soviet air defenses.
Second, the cruise requires rolling terrain with many well-
defined features in order to work as designed. But many
Russian targets — including the Soviet missile force — are
deployed in flat areas that don't offer enough distinct ground
features for the cruise to fly as planned.
Third, as the GAO says, the detailed contour maps needed
for "matching" do not exist. And "high quality source data
. . . may not be available for operational areas." What this
means, says a Pentagon consultant, is simple: The maps that
may be available will only be extrapolations. Even the high-
resolution photography obtained from satellites cannot offer
the proper angles for efficient cruise operation. "And the only
way you could get angularly precise data," says a defense
specialist, "is to pre-map the target areas by flying at the
cruise's programmed altitude over its wartime course — and
the Russians would be nuts to let us do that."
Worse still, assuming all the foregoing problems could be
resolved, a "correct" contour map could be foiled by simply
stationing reflectors in the path of the cruise; it would then
become confused and couldn't come up with the required
"match."
Still, the administration and the military press ahead.
New weapons mean contracts, money, jobs, and careers. And
no one is going to cut back if it means, in effect, firing himself.
Nuclear war may be unlikely, but
conventional war is highly probable. How
capable is the American army?
"I wouldn't trade one American soldier for ten Russians."
At one time or another, every American president and service
secretary has said something like that. And for good reason.
The Russian army is a mess. For example, of the 3.5 million
soldiers in its military forces, almost half are non-Russian-
speaking ethnics who can't read their instruction manuals.
Their training is therefore poor — so poor that many ethnic
troops had to be pulled out of Afghanistan because they
couldn't perform their jobs.
America's 2-million-member military doesn't have much of
a language problem, but with 40 percent of new recruits
unable to read above a seventh-grade level, the army has been
tagged as the world's largest remedial reading program. And
last year's evaluations found six of the ten combat divisions
stationed in the United States unprepared for action. The
army, says its chief of staff. General Edward Meyer, is
"hollow."
Abroad, on the front lines, the picture is almost as bleak.
Last year, nine out of ten American soldiers assigned to
operate and maintain the army's nuclear weapons in Western
Europe flunked basic tests of military skills. Eighty-six
percent of the army's artillery crewmen also flunked, as did
77 percent of the computer programmers, 89 percent of the
tracked-vehicle mechanics, and 82 percent of the crews of the
Hawk surface-to-air missiles.
Do these shortcomings affect combat efficiency? Of course.
In NATO competitions, handpicked American troops finish
dead last almost all the time. In a recent gunnery exercise,
American crews failed to hit a single target; Allied gunners,
meanwhile, achieved scores of 70 percent or better.
Cor
American troops almost always finish dead last . . .
Incredibly, john Marsh's predecessor as army secretary,
ClifTord Alexander, refused to acknowledge that intelligence
scores relate to a soldier's performance ability. "No one, no
expert," said Alexander, "has been able to state what
difference [intelligence scores] make."
Well, Alexander no longer runs the army, but the problem
of low aptitude remains. What's more, it will likely continue
until the draft is revived, a position Ronald Reagan has
refused to take. But the president — or his successor — will
have to revive the draft before long. The pool of 17- to 21 -year-
old men is dropping and will decrease by a million by 1985.
By the end of the decade, one of every three eligible males will

have to enlist if the military is to retain its present force levels.
Clearly, that is not going to happen.
Worse, the volunteer army has found it necessary to com-
pete for personnel in the marketplace. Beginning pay has
skyrocketed, while the truly skilled, non-commissioned veter-
ans are being shortchanged, and even those who would like
to stay are finding it financially impossible to do so. Those
television reports of army families relying on food stamps
have not been fabricated. The bottom line is staggering: The
army is short some 22,000 non-commissioned officers; the
navy needs 20,000 more petty officers.
For this reason alone — to free up funds for those soldiers
the army must retain if it is to function at all (the non-
commissioned officers) — conscription must return.
Can the United States tolerate military
manpower shortages because of
the technological superiority of its weapons?
No. Unequivocally. And not just because many soldiers
can't operate the equipment. Too often, the equipment itself
doesn't operate. Too often, the technologically elegant solu-
tion — perfect on paper — fails in the real world.
Technology has become the new Maginot Line. Here's
Franklin "Chuck" Spinney, a tactical-air-warfare specialist in
the Pentagon's program-analysis office: "By ignoring the real
world, we have evolved a self-reinforcing, yet scientifically
unsupportable, faith in the military usefulness of ever increas-
ing technological complexity. The costs of [this] can be
generalized into low readiness, slower modernization and
declining forces. . . . Our strategy of pursuing ever increasing
VEN FOR AN ACRONYM-CRAZED PROFESSION LIKE THE
military, it was a mouthful. It was called AIM-VAL,
ACE-VAL. and it was an $80-million fly-off in 1977
between the air force's "hottest" planes (the F-14s
and F-15s) and America's older fighters, the F-4s
and F-5s. which were supposed to simulate Soviet Mig 21s. It
was the most sophisticated and most re-
alistic air-combat exercise ever.
The older. "Russian" jets had their radar
detectors removed. The air force figured
the Soviets couldn't possibly have that kind
of sophistication. But one of the "Russian"
pilots figured better; he could easily read
the powerful searching radars of the F-14s
and F- 1 5s with nothing more elaborate than
a slightly modified automobile dashboard
"fuzzbuster" — and surely the Soviets could
be presumed to have that low level of so-
phistication. After all, they have put men in
space — so it seems reasonable to assume
they've developed a radar-reading capabili-
ty equal to what an American motorist can
buy over the counter to thwart the highway
patrol.
Well, the fuzzbuster worked. The F-4s
and F-5s were able to detect the F-14s and
F-15s when the newer planes used their
radar. And, by so doing, the "inferior" F-4s
and F-5s consistently "killed" the "better"
planes. Al.M-VAL. ACE-VAL taught the air
force — or. more precisely, should have taught it — four les-
sons. First, combat is always confused. The only textbook
battles are in textbooks. Second, the number of planes avail-
able to fight was far more important than the technical
capabilities of the planes in the fight. Third, the smaller,
harder-to-see planes outlived the bigger ones — no matter the
advanced gadgetry on the "better" planes. And, fourth, the
pilots of the smaller, less souped-up planes learned to fly
them faster and. for the most part, flew them better.
As for the powerful radar that our "hot" planes utilize in
order to let them "see" the enemy early — well, that radar
often backfires. When in use, it acts like a beacon, and thus
denies its user the single most important advantage in air
warfare — surprise. It's like going into a dark room with a
flashlight to look for a burglar. Unless you are very lucky,
chances are the burglar will see you long before you see him.
Add to this the fact that smaller aircraft, like the F-5, are
more maneuverable than the F-15. Even an official Pentagon
spokesman concedes that the "F-5 can turn inside an F-15,
and it can turn faster. The worst possible situation for an F-15
is a dogfight. It is designed for non-visual flight."
But non-visual flight requires the F-15 to use its radar. And,
again, once it uses its radar, it's like being back in that dark
room with a flashlight.
On top of this, much of the killing capability of the "hot"
planes is overrated. The F-15, for example, is so big (and
therefore so easy a target) because it was designed around its
radar-guided air-to-air-missile system — the same kind of
system used by our F-4s in Vietnam. And while in Pentagon
tests the missiles killed in seven often shots, the record shows
that in the real world of Vietnam, our missiles hit their targets
JUNE 22. 1981 /NEW YORK
23
"... The defense establishment needs to start thinking
at a rate of between one shot in five and one shot in twelve.
That's why America's kill ratio over the Mig 21s in Vietnam
was only two to one.
There's another major problem with the "hot" planes (and
this includes the latest "hot" aircraft, the F-16): They're so
complicated that they're often in the shop for repair. The
F-14, for example, requires 97 man-hours of maintenance for
every hour it flies.
The result of all this, says Pierre Sprey, who helped design
some of the country's "hottest" aircraft, is that America's
current first-line land-based fighter, the F-15, "is [only] ready
— that is, fully mission capable — about 35 percent of the time.
Small «ucc.«»! The maneuverable F-5 has one big advantage — il works.
Deploying a squadron of them usually requires stripping two
or three other squadrons of their spare parts and test equip-
ment. In fact, in a 1980 inspection, the air force's prestigious
First Fighter Wing (F-15s) was found incapable of deploying
with three weeks' prior notice."
This downtime, says Sprey, takes its toll: "In the even more
important area of personnel readiness, our pilots average
only about one-third as many flights per month as Israeli
pilots average." The net effect, says Sprey, is that "both pilots
and maintenance crews in the air reserves and Air National
Guard [who fly the older, less complex aircraft] are noticeably
superior to those in the regular forces. Retention of active
fighter pilots has dropped to an all-time low, primarily be-
cause of inadequate flying time and only secondarily because
of low pay [which is the reason the air force claims it is losing
its best pilots]."
So today, because of the cost of the fighters, the air force
has fewer of them than ever before — and their complexity
doesn't begin to make up for their small number. Still, the top
brass likes the super-sophisticated stuff. The system — and this
includes the aerospace industry — can't continue expanding
by simply turning out the less complicated, cheaper fighters.
Says former House member Bob Carr, "We'd rather buy new
technology than fix the old."
The very real dangers of complexity are everywhere. In
Western Europe, for example, the army has less than half the
number of tanks that are available to the Warsaw Pact
nations. To counter this numerical inferiority, the army is
counting on its new, sophisticated M-1 tank, each of which
costs $2.8 million. The army wants 7,058 of them. The M-1 is
the heaviest tank ever built, and if it ever has to be quickly
airlifted to a combat zone, the army will be in trouble.
America's biggest transport aircraft, the C-5A, can only ac-
commodate one M-1 tank at a time — and in the entire air
force there are only 77 C5-A's.
The M-1 can go fast, all right. But there is a 70 percent
probability that it will need a whole new engine after only
4,000 miles. Before that happens, the M-1 will eat a lot of fuel;
it gets three gallons to the mile.
Naturally, the M-1 has the very latest computerized gun,
but it is so complicated that most G.I.'s seem to agree with the
army sergeant who said "I prefer to just John Wayne it," and
fire blind from side to side.
Needless to say, the gadgetry on our
planes and ships and tanks, and even in the
hands of the lowly infantry soldier, doesn't
come cheap. That's why the president
wants $1.5 trillion for the military over the
next five years.
Now, it stands to reason that when
there's that much money around, there'll be
a little waste. According to the Committee
on National Security, a private watchdog
group, recent Pentagon extravagance to-
taled some $32 billion — more than enough
to make up for next year's projected mili-
tary-budget increase. And even the General
Accounting OfTice, with little trouble, has
identified numerous areas in which billions
could be saved. For example, says the
GAO, improving the maintenance-and-
support system for a single plane, the navy's
F-18 ("A turkey," says New York Represen-
tative Tom Downey, "a prototypical exam-
ple of technology gone crazy"), would save
an estimated $4 billion.
Requiring the air force to make do with
one instead of two computer systems to handle routine
administrative functions, says the GAO, would save another
billion. And still another billion could be saved by simply
utilizing more air-force planes on Saturdays.
The list is endless, and it doesn't include the greatest mind-
boggling atrocity of all — sole-source procurement. Accord-
ing to the Office of Federal Procurement Policy, the govern-
ment could save up to $8 billion by having the Defense
Department move to competitive bidding more frequently.
This doesn't mean sole-source purchases should be ruled
out entirely. Sometimes, sole-source is the only way to go. But
why, as Senator Howard Metzenbaum asks, should the De-
fense Department purchase lawn mowers at $200 each when
competitive bidding could get them for $120? Even spark
plugs, says Metzenbaum, are bought at 60 cents apiece when
they could be had for 20. And what about the 25-cent knob
that the Defense Department picked up for $23? Or the $5
bolt it picked up for $96, or the 3-cent screw that was
purchased for $91? This list, too, is endless.
A
LL IS NOT LOST. A GOOD DEAL CAN BE DONE TO IM-
prove the military, and much of it simply involves
some rethinking.
To begin with — and to repeat, because it needs
repeating — the draft must be reinstated. The truly
important manpower consideration is the loss of trained non-
commissioned officers.
Meanwhile, the general officer corps could be safely re-
duced. There are, at present, 1,136 generals and admirals in
the armed forces — the same number, approximately, as in
World War II, when the military was six times today's size.

smaller - smaller planes, ships, subs, and tanks. . . "
The navy, as the president has said, needs more ships. But
it needs smaller ones. The administration wants two new
large aircraft carriers. With their escorts and planes, their
combined cost would approach $14 billion. No wonder the
administration wants only two. But large carriers are particu-
larly vulnerable targets, and many of their planes must be
assigned exclusively to their defense. Smaller, faster, more
maneuverable ships (some with vertical-takeoff-and-landing
planes) have a better chance of surviving. And, as radar expert
Thomas Amlie points out. Stealth technology (almost certain-
ly destined to fail in the real world when it is applied to
planes) probably can be made to work for small vessels, since
the sea's wave action, in combination with Stealth, can help
mask a ship's radar "signature."
Similarly, the proposed placement of the nation's entire
nuclear-submarine arsenal in 24 Trident subs seems foolish.
The Soviets would be even harder pressed than they now are
if they were forced to find smaller and more numerous
targets.
For the cost of one Trident, America could buy three
smaller diesel-electric subs. And, according to Richard Gar-
win, these diesel-electrics (already perfected by the Germans)
are extremely quiet. What's more, since they would operate
close to shore, they would be good candidates for Stealth:
Coastal waters are easily filled with decoy noise, and the small
size of the diesel-electrics would also make them harder for
an enemy to locate.
Less complex and lighter tanks should be a top priority.
They can form the backbone of a truly rapid force. Today, the
Rapid Deployment Force is not rapid, deployable, or forceful.
It is simply a headquarters command reflecting age-old serv-
ice rivalries. Its proposed functions should be assigned to the
marines, who have always been mobile and who can acquire
the few additional skills necessary for the RDF.
THE AIR FORCE NEEDS SOME MA/OR CHANGES. RIGHT
now, says Pierre Sprey, there is an urgent need for
a "combined arms fighter" that trades near-useless
supersonic speed (which necessitates a relatively
large, heavy plane) for small size and easy han-
dling. What America doesn't need is another large, un-
maneuverable plane — like the B-1 bomber.
The air force also needs a new air-to-air gun (the current
one, even on the "hot" fighters, uses a 1942 round that is the
least effective in the world).
And among the many changes that must be accomplished
regarding radar, the first involves development of an accurate
air-to-air missile that doesn't require it — because, again, in
using that radar it is telegraphing its position and aiding in
its own demise.
Most important, what the air force needs is a large fleet of
small, simple, and easily maintained planes that don't spend
half their lives in the shop like a racing Ferrari.
Finally, there is the matter of tactics. America's military has
invested so heavily in technology in part because it assumes
it can predict the nature of future conflicts. Such predictabili-
ty is essential when a nation spends billions for weapon
systems that have highly specific uses, but, unfortunately, war
is inherently unpredictable — a truth understood by the guer-
rillas of the Revolutionary War but one today's American
military appears to have forgotten. In fact, today's American
army pretty much resembles the British redcoats. It engages
in massive attrition campaigns that often fail to establish
winners and losers.
Sometimes, the consequences of such policies are tragic. In
Vietnam, for example, America never seemed to learn that it
was fighting the wrong kind of war. Large-scale bombing and
huge land forays couldn't cope with an elusive guerrilla force.
And, ironically, as the Vietnamese improved their anti-air-
craft capabilities, they destroyed more of our property than
we did of theirs.
Non-nuclear war in the foreseeable future could break out
almost anywhere (but probably not in Europe, which is about
the only place we are prepared for it). And when it does, it
again will likely be of the guerrilla variety — if only because a
potential enemy can see how ill-prepared America continues
to be to fight that kind of conflict. And at that point, all our
high-tech solutions won't be worth their computer printouts.
Less is sometimes more, and more is sometimes less.
America should pause to consider the limits of technology.
And it should also remember that throughout history the
intangibles of battle — leadership, command experience, tac-
tical ingenuity, and troop skill — have always meant more than
materiel factors. Depending then on how the money is
spent, a trillion and a half dollars can buy a lot of defense —
or hardly any at all. ^
Myths, Money, and Missiles: A Defense Reading List
IN RECENT MONTHS, A FAIR AMOUNT
of good work on defense-related
issues has appeared in books and
magazines and on television. Here is
a brief and admittedly subjective
guide to further study in this area:
The very best overall critique of
America's defense posture is Na-
tional Defense, by fames Fallows
(Random House, 1981). Richard Bar-
net's Real Security (Simon and Schu-
ster, 1981) explores the psychology of
defense and its relationship to foreign
policy. The question of missile ac-
curacy is best discussed by Andrew
and Alexander Cockbum in "The
Myth of Missile Accuracy," The New
York Review of Books (November 20.
1980). Also, see Richard Garwin's
"Basing the MX Missile: A Better
Idea," in Technology Review, May/
lune 1981.
Franklin C. Spinney's December 5,
1980, report, "Defense Facts of Life"
(available through the Defense De-
partment's Public Affairs Office),
deals with technology and weapon
effectiveness. So do two articles by
Pierre Sprey: "Land-Based Tactical
Aviation," in Reforming the Military
(through the Heritage Foundation, in
Washington), and "Negative Margin-
al Returns in Weapons Acquisition,"
in American Defense Policy, third
edition (the )ohns Hopkins Universi-
ty Press, Baltimore, 1977). "The Plane
the Pentagon Couldn't Stop," by
Michael Ennis (Texas Monthly, June
1981), details the development of the
F-16 fighter.
For an understanding of the mag-
nitude and kinds of waste found in
defense expenditures, see two Gener-
al Accounting OfTice reports: "Oper-
ational and Support Costs of the
Navy's F-18 Can Be Substantially Re-
duced" (LCD-80-65) and "Effective-
ness of U.S. Forces Can Be Increased
Through Improved Weapon System
Design" (PSAD-81-17).
The best piece on air-force read-
iness is Dave Marash's May 1, 1980,
piece for ABC's 20/20 (available from
ABC). — M.K.

Social Stamina
By Marie Brenner
MIDNIGHT. IKRZY
Kosinski eased
the big Buick
up Eighth Ave-
nue. The route
was familiar though Kosinski
wasn't sure where he was
going. He was never sure.
Night after night, after his
black tie was back on the tie
rack, after he had sat through
another dinner where he
knew he was invited "because
of their image of me," he was
ready to turn himself into a
kaleidoscope, ready to be
"shaken into new patterns."
!n these hours, he was com-
pletely anonymous. No one
knew him as the author of The
Painted Bird or Being There.
No one asked him about Peter
Sellers or his activities at
PEN.
This April night, Kosinski
didn't know exactly what he
was looking for. He had heard
about a strange after-hours
club where the entertainment
was "more Bosch than Pel-
lini." Kosinski's stops were not the stops
of other social men. He was after
cockfights, sweatshop Haitians, the ex-
otic and perverse. He was well rested, in
training for these adventures. His energy
level made Mailer look like Baby lane.
At dinner, he barely touched his sin-
gle rum-and-cola, determined to stay
alert.
East 125th Street. He looked in his
rearview mirror and noticed two men
were following him. "I speeded up,"
Kosinski recalls. "I thought I lost them.
Anyway, I wasn't concerned." Over the
next few hours, he made fifteen stops. By
four in the morning he was back in the
city for an "appointment" to photograph
a resident of a Times Square hotel. He

took the stairs and asked the hall porter
for directions to Room 368. Suddenly he
was surrounded.
Two detectives flashed their badges at
him on the staircase. "They said they
were going to search me," Kosinski re-
members. "All I had with me was my
leather satchel." In it was his advance
copy of Cockpit, cameras, a legal pad,
and a packet of the three-by-five cards
he uses to jot down notes. The detectives
looked at the book-jacket photo and
back at Kosinski. "We thought you were
a dope dealer," one said. "Do you re-
alize all the stops you've made? Do you
realize what you've cost the city of New
York?" A pause. "Is this what every
writer does at night?"

works the
late shift.
Others punch
out earlier, but all over the
city. New York's most ac-
complished writers and
thinkers are out night after
night, like debutantes in high
season. See Vonnegut in
black tie at the opening of the
circus or the Tchaikovsky fes-
tival. See Mailer at Alice Ma-
son's Valentine dinner. See
Mailer at Liza Minnelli's par-
ty for Rock Brynner, talking
with Tatum O'Neal at
Elaine's. See Kosinski at a
benefit in the basement of the
World Trade Center. See Ar-
thur Schlesinger just off a
plane from London, partying
with Steve Smith and lean.
Read all about them in Wom-
en's Wear Daily and "Liz
Smith."
Their stamina inspires.
Corporate types wilt after ten.
The eyes droop. So do the
spirits. Husbands pull at wives. Gelusil
waits at home in the medicine cabinet.
They fret about their early-morning
breakfast dates.
Not our speediest social long-dis-
tance runners. Celebrity is their B-12
shot. Hundreds may go out, but only a
dozen seem ubiquitous. Everyone won-
ders where they get the energy. Perhaps
flashbulbs are their poppers. Partygoers
stare at them, their opinions are sought.
You hear the whispers: "There's
.Mailer." "There's Jerzy." "Is that Henry
the K?" They hear the whispers too.
Their adrenaline surges. In that kind of
atmosphere, it's hard to get home in
time for Warner Wolf. Fringe socialites

please them. Their date books are filled.
Their achievements have been their
ticket into this ballroom of New York
high life. Tlieir phones ring. Secretaries
decline and accept, RSVP and confirm.
Mailer has become our Streisand, Von-
negut our Goldie Hawn. The city is their
stage, their colleagues their co-stars.
Night is their reward.
God knows, they deserve it. All day
long they sit there like invalids, staring
at typewriters, telling their researchers
what to do. They type a sentence. They
reverse a phrase. They think important
thoughts about neo-conservatism, Egyp-
tology, the creation of the world. Rare is
the lunch at the Four Seasons grill. They
sit. Gloom joins them. Not for them the
pleasures of the facial. Voyage en Douce
at two, the street.
Come the night, they are ready to
bloom like jasmine. And it isn't their
wives who force them into dinner
clothes. "At the end of the day, I'm
absolutely exhausted," fill Krementz
Vonnegut says. "But Kurt has been
alone in a room all day. He's more anx-
ious to stretch his legs. It helps him to
clear his head." "I even like the chaos of
a cocktail party," Arthur Schlesinger
says. "Not Alexandra. After a day of
taking care of the children and the
house, she's tired. She wants to rest
before going out in the evening."
Anything can attract them. A prize-
fight, an aikido bout. A crush at Star-
buck's. A birthday party for Fran9ois De
Menil. A benefit at Lord & Taylor.
They'll inevitably turn up where a Ken-
nedy is, and usually at a Marion Javits
ffete. Celebrity auctions, press screen-
ings. The de la Rentas are always
good for a Sunday- night pot-roast-
dinner date.
WHAT RV ERYONE WONDERS
is not why they go, but
how they do it. How are
they able to flit around
like Sylvia Miles and
still get up to think? They have all sorts
of little tricks. "I have a very strict re-
gime," Michael Arlen says. "I drown
myself in Perrier and then have one glass
of wine after dinner. I know it's strange,
but it works. Another thing: We go to
Elaine's when it's quiet, around eight,
and by ten, when Marcel Proust and the
rest of the Ice Capades come in, we're
usually quite ready to leave."
Arlen insists he goes to sleep early.
Henry Kissinger makes no such claim.
He only needs four hours' sleep a night.
"The light goes out at two and he's up at
six," a close friend says. Jerzy Kosinski
has trained himself to sleep from four
o'clock to eight o'clock — twice a day.
William Buckley has trained himself to
avoid going out almost at all, delighted,
friends say, to have Jerry Zipkin, Ameri-
ca's escort, serve as his wife's walking
stick. And Arthur Schlesinger sounds
absolutely virtuous about his schedule:
"We try not to go out more than three
times a week," he says. "Usually we fail."
Self-destruction is no longer chic. The
absence of alcohol is another key. Now
the Hemingway syndrome of booze and
bars seems to afflict those in crisis or the
terminally second-rate. Vonnegut and
Mailer have stopped drinking entirely.
Kosinski must disguise his solitary rum
with something sweet. "The answer to
the whole equation is drinking," Mi-
Man, woman, and ttiair •laganc*: Norman Mailer and Norris Church.

c
Bird of night: lerzy Kosinski.
chael Arlen says. "The amount you
drink has a direct effect on your ability
to do serious work. When you're totally
involved with your work, how could any-
one stay up late, take drugs, or drink?"
They all say they live by the strictest
rules. And those Spartan disciplines
must be rewarded, when they wander out,
by decent conversation to keep them
going. At dinners, the debs often tend to
chatter and scrutinize. They demand to
be amused. Don't put Mailer next to
your aunt from Providence if you expect
him to return to your dining room. "If
I'm having a dinner for Norman and (his
wife] Norris," says Mailer's constant
hostess, Ian Cushing Olympitis, "I'll put
Norman with attractive girls that are
bright. Pat Lawford or Alexandra
Schlesinger are always good." Mrs.
Olympitis remembers the first time her
good friend Arthur Schlesinger met her
husband: "He absolutely grilled him on
the classics and historical dates. For-
tunately, my husband went to Oxford
and knew more than Arthur about cer-
tain things. I watched Arthur's face turn
from a kind of a frown to a beam."
"What would send me into incipient
alcoholism is giving the impression that
we're all enjoying ourselves tremen-
dously," Joe Heller says. "When I go out
to give lectures, all these people look at
me with envy because they see me
photographed at parties talking with
other writers or an actress or editors,
and they imagine I'm having a great time
when I'm not. Often, when my picture is
taken, what I'm saying to someone is
'What are we doing here?' I mean, the
only reason I go to these literary parties
is out of obligation or a frantic need to
have something to do."
It's more than that, of course. It's

good business. It's a need to be afFirmed.
Those who choose to shine in this arena
know that the going-out process is al-
ways a gamble, rarely a pleasure, often
more work than work. A form of cyni-
cism sets in.
Michael Arlen sounds wistful. "The
other day an eminent publisher told me
there were three factors in the writing of
any book, and I thought he was about to
give me a learned discussion about ex-
position and narrative. Instead, he said
that the three factors were
"the writing,' 'the selling,' and
'the promotion.' A lot of writ-
ers out there believe it."
But they pretend they
don't. No one serious wants
to be accused of being Judith
Krantz, but they all want to
make Krantzian dollars. A
kind of awful realism takes
the place of literary naivete.
In this sphere, fame and ac-
complishment are confused
and connected, a Mobius
strip. That fine phrase "The
aristocracy of success knows
no strangers" has become one
of the cliches of our culture. It
is that aristocracy which pro-
pels our debs of Mensa to ac-
cept, decline, confirm. No
one is surprised anymore to
see Kurt Vonnegut and Jerzy
Kosinski going to the same
dinner party as Farrah
Fawcett and Ryan O'Neal.
INTELLECTUALS HAVE ALWAYS MADE
alliances with socialites. Fitzgerald
and the Murphys. Truman Capote
and "Babe" Paley. The socialites
like to collect them, and the in-
tellectuals feel flattered — salon pets of a
rarefied world. These alliances are not
capricious. Friends of Capote's say
that after the publication of excerpts
from Answered Prayers he all but
"cracked up" over his rejection by the
social elite. But Capote learned a hard
lesson. Craving a place at these tables is
like shooting smack. One constantly
needs more: more afllirmation, more ob-
ligation, more weary sighs of "It's lonely
at the top." There's an awful lot to be
said for being able to sigh "It's lonely
at the lop."
The urge to be Mother Teresa aside,
there is little more rewarding than feel-
ing sought-after. And if one is sought
after as a kind of final certification for
genuine accomplishment, then smoky
rooms can become bearable, idiotic so-
cial babble can sound inspired, tedious
dinner partners begin to sparkle, bleary
mornings turn into a time for rest, and
columnists' dumb questions and pho-
tographers are simply hazards of the
trade. We read about Robert Penn
Warren reciting Homer to his wife at
night in the country, and that activity, to
a New Yorker, seems like a daffy
affectation from another age.
The debs may complain, but few stay
home. Mailer will show up at fashion
shows — he tells friends he does it "for
Norris" — but whatever his reasons, he
goes, he goes. Yet the partygoers worry
d: The Schlesingers step out.
about being thought frivolous. They
stress their attendance at dinners for
Isaiah Berlin. Thus one hears, "Last
week we hardly went out at all." Or
"We're always home by twelve."
And among the practitioners, theories
of social stamina abound — that is, about
everybody else's. "Next to the Mailers
and the Schlesingers, we're stay-at-
homes," lill Krementz says. "I don't
know how the Mailers and Schlesingers
do it," she adds. "I swear, they're out
every night."
Joe Heller takes the long view. "I
think what happens with American au-
thors is that the most ambitious and
successful works are done early — look
at Faulkner and James. But as writers get
successful, I think maybe we don't want
to work as hard. And perhaps because
we aren't working as hard, there is more
dissipation. More parties, more manic-
depression, more alcohol. I think that's
more a symptom than a cause."
Some of them manage to balance ev-
erything. All of them say their social
lives have little effect on their work.
Mailer, says Mrs. Cushing Olympitis, is
up by six and working in an office
without a telephone. Vonnegut retreats
to his upstairs office by nine, his wife
says. Her secretary takes care of all the
messages and keeps track of the invita-
tions addressed to Mr. and Mrs. "Once
they get into Kurt's office, they're gone
forever," Krementz says. The Schles-
ingers compare date books every Mon-
day "to see if we have the same week in
mind." "My tendency is to want to put
things off," Arthur Schlesinger admits.
Michael Arlen says, "God knows, at this
age I often think an eight o'clock bed-
time would be just fine."
FOR A FEW. A \ ERY FEW.
the social process is
actually creative and
connected to their
work. Kosinski, a so-
cial scientist by training, has
even analyzed his own social
structure. "A good event
makes a dent in my notion of
myself, modifies my ritual,
and makes me richer," he says.
But Kosinski is way beyond
mere thoughts of social stam-
ina. "With me, it is social ob-
session. Social stamina is to
the fabric of social life what
exercise in the park is to
sport. You just go through it
because it is part of what
you're doing. With social ob-
session, the need is visceral.
You come to life when you go
out. Your being depends on
being with other people."
He is not talking about hanging
around with Nan Kempner. Kosinski
leads a double life. Before midnight, he
might wander into the de la Rentas' "to
feed the socially aware side of me." Af-
ter midnight, he is in search of the
creative. "In one world, I am a pro-
fessional voyager knowing what it is that
is expected of me; in the other . . . well,
I wonder."
His world is that of freaks, aliens,
after-hours clubs, photo sessions, en-
counter groups listed in the Voice, or
odd strolls through hospitals. There is
no pattern to it. Inevitably, those travels
will reappear in a later book. Sometimes
he wears a mustache and goes under his
nonfiction nom de plume, Joseph No-
vak. He goes out ritualistically, whether
tired or not. Always, he travels alone,
carrying his three-by-five cards. "I can-
not have a companion with me," he says.
"A male friend wouldn't share my same
interests. I might get protective of a
woman. Either would think that some-
thing was supposed to happen each
time, and often nothing does. And then
they would say to me, 'Jerzy, why are you
wasting your time this way?' "

After Mailer and Arlen and Schles-

even his work method is scientific. A

ment, a new novel is in progress. Music
is its theme. Kosinski has been seen all
over New York with Tony Bennett. At
nightclubs, in jazz joints, at the Rainbow
Room. His stamina pays off. Hundreds
of cards are filled with descriptions,
some mundane, others oblique, notes
about "classical American nightclubs"
and "a million-dollar penthouse with
private recording studio." Out of this, he
hopes, will come art. "Social life is just
a propellant for my main event, which is
my work. This is my compass. I follow
my compass, but the compass trem-
bles."
The work finally propels all of them,
however their social compasses might
tremble. They go out to reassure them-
selves, to learn, maybe even to have a
good time. They do not seem bothered
by the notion that too many public ap-
pearances might trivialize them. They
want to be judged for their work alone.
"Someone might ask me if I had a good
time," Kosinski says. " Tes, very,' I
might answer. 'Well, and have you found
someone interesting?' they ask, and for
this question, there is but one answer.
"Yes, I have found someone very in-
teresting. I have found myself.' " ™

John Lennon's Killer:
ByCraigUngefi
MARK DAVID CHAPMAN
picked up the November
1980 issue of Esquire and
started reading. "I was
looking for the Lennon
who had always shot his mouth off," said
the article, by Laurence Shames, ". . . an
often pathetic truth-seeker whose
pained, goofy, earnest, and paranoid vis-
age was the emblem and conscience of
an age. The Lennon I would have found
is a forty-year-old businessman who
watches a lot of television, who's got
SI 50 million, a son whom he dotes on,
and a wife who intercepts his phone
calls."" That phony," thought the 25-year-
old Chapman — or so he later confided.
It was just as he had known all along.
Holden Caulfield would never stand for
this. Not the catcher in the rye.
Last October 23, Chapman went to
the sign-out sheet at the high-rise condo
in Honolulu where he worked as a secu-
rity guard. Instead of his own name.
Mark scrawled "john Lennon."
Before leaving his job, he made at
least one phone call. Mark's employ-
ment counselor had always seemed
friendly, even when her office was
jammed. She appreciated the painting
Mark had made for her. The least he
could do would be to tell her he was
leaving his job.
"Gee, Mark," she said. "Are you look-
ing for something else?"
"No. 1 already have a job to do."
And so began a 17,000-mile odyssey
that would take Mark David Chapman
to New York three times, to his home-
town in Atlanta, and back to Hawaii
before its bloody denouement in De-
cember inside the archway at the Dako-
ta. In the intervening six weeks, he
would revisit the sites of many of his past
failures. Student, musician, boyfriend.
Christian, YMCA camp counselor — he
had failed at them all. He had even failed
as a suicide. It was, as he'd told a friend
years before, as if the world had decided
that there was no place for Mark Chap-
man, that Mark Chapman didn't exist.
Now. SIX MONTHS ^FTHR THK
shooting of Lennon. Mark
David Chapman is approach-
ing judgment. Yet the mys-
tery surrounding his motiva-
tions remains as perplexing as ever. Last
week, eleven days before the selection
of the jury for his trial was to get under
way. Chapman suddenly began talking
about changing his plea. After months of
preparation for the trial, during which
Chapman's new attorney, Jonathan
Marks (Chapman's first attorney re-
signed after receiving threatening phone
calls), had assembled a topflight team of
expert witnesses to buttress a plea of not
guilty by reason of insanity. Chapman
reported that "God told me ... to
change my plea" to guilty after all.
Proceedings will begin with jury
selection next Monday, and only then,
sources say, would a change in plea be
made. Manhattan District Attorney
Robert Morgenthau's office has already
said a guilty plea would be acceptable
only if no plea bargaining was involved.
But if it was accepted. Chapman's case
would not go to trial. Should the guilty
plea be disallowed, and the trial go for-
ward as planned, Marks could con-
ceivably use Chapman's about-face as
further evidence of his client's instabili-
ty. Whether or not he does that, Marks
would still have to base his case on
presenting evidence that Chapman
acted under a delusion that compelled
him to shoot Lennon. And the prose-
cution, led by Assistant District At-
torney Allen Sullivan, would have to
prove beyond a reasonable doubt that
Chapman was sane, within the meaning
of the law, when he shot Lennon.
Isolated as he was at the time of the
shooting, it is difiicult to think of Mark
Chapman alone. His name inevitably in-
vokes those of John Hinckley. Dennis
Sweeney, and those others Ken Kesey.
the merry prankster, refers to as "this
new legion of dangerous disappoint-
eds." To deal with this corps that guns
for the great, psychiatrists have coined
the term "magnacide." Others refer to
them simply as the "killer nurds."
They share more than just a legacy of
failure. From acidhead to lesus freak,
from runaway to camp counselor. Chap-
man's personality swung between its
various poles until it came to rest in an
intense love affair and what appeared to
be a satisfying career. But, like Allard
Lowenstein's alleged killer, Dennis
Sweeney, Chapman's good times were
all too brief. Painfully aware of his own
shortcomings. Chapman searched des-
perately for a secure identity. Unable to
find it in the world around him, he in-
ternalized his search, creating a world of
his own. Its signposts were his ob-

MARK CHAPMAN'S PARENTS
don't live on Green For-
rest Drive in Atlanta any-
more. His mother, Diane,
divorced her husband and
now lives in Hawaii. Mark's father,
David Chapman, a former air-force ser-
geant who works as a middle-man-

agement bank employee in Atlanta, re-
married after the divorce and moved
from this crossroads of Bible Belt and
suburban-mall culture to a country
house a few miles away. Down by the
lake olT Snapfinger Woods, Camp Koda,
where Mark was a counselor, closed
down long ago. And at the nearby South
DeKalb branch of the YMCA, Mark's
home away from home, his colleagues
have all moved on to other things. No
one there remembers him.
Those who did know Mark don't rec-
ognize the man who shot John Lennon,
or even the surly, brusque,
high-strung individual
whose erratic behavior
caught the eye of Hon-
olulu acquaintances. "It's
just like a different person
than I used to know," said
David Chapman, who,
sources say, hasn't spoken
with him since about the
time Mark attempted sui-
cide in 1977. Mark's father
says he won't speak his
piece until the trial is over.
Mark's chorus teacher at
Columbia High School in
Atlanta says, "Out of the.
400 students I had, Mark
would be the last to do
something like that."
Drugs, family strife, bro-
kenhearted love affairs,
and rock 'n' roll — Mark
grew up carrying more
than his share of the banal
emotional baggage of sub-
urban adolescence. Highly
suggestible, highly impres-
sionable, intensely eager
to prove his worth. Chap-
man was drawn to author-
ity figures as mentors and
role models, aping their
values. "He would do any-
thing to please me," says
Tony Adams, former exec-
utive director of the South
DeKalb YMCA branch,
where David Chapman
taught guitar and Mark
worked for several years.
"We made him assistant
director of the summer
camp because he had real
leadership qualities. Mark
was a very caring person.
Hate was not even in his vocabulary. He
said he had experimented with drugs.
But when he was fifteen or sixteen, he
had more or less a religious experience.
He felt like the Lord had touched him,
that he had turned his life around. He
wanted to prove that he was a good
person, that there was no bad person
inside of him."
Those years at the Y were magical for
Mark, who was then in his late teens. His
boss at Camp Koda, Vincent Smith, re-
members him as a regular Pied Piper
with children. Sending his young

charges out on a watermelon hunt, Mark
would tell them they were looking for
dinosaur eggs. They called him Nemo,
presumably after the captain in 20.000
Leagues Under the Sea. "He was a great
storyteller, and the kids loved him," says
Smith. "He was always very respectful.
He looked up to me."
One day in 1974, Mark approached
Smith with a well-worn copy of The
Catcher in the Rye. "It's a good book," he
told Smith. "I just wanted to make sure
you had read it."
But there was more to Mark than the
eager YMCA counselor. "He got into
drugs pretty early, around ninth grade,"
recalls Miles McManus, a classmate who
also worked with him at the Y. "Pot,
MDA, hallucinogens — he did anything
he could get his hands on. He was real
down on LSD and said he had real bad
experiences. Then he became kind of a
lesus freak. He carried a Bible with him.
He would quote Scriptures and prose-
lytize. He did that for about a year
before he cooled off."
With rock 'n' roll, as with drugs and
religion, Mark would occasionally seem
to cross over the line between exuber-
ance and excess. His "theme
song,"according to Tony Adams, "which
he sang over and over," was Jerry JefT
Walker's "Mr. Bojangles," a ballad
about meeting the legendary song-and-
dance man in jail. He worshiped pop
musician Todd Rundgren, occasionally
quoting to Miles "the gospel according
32 NEW YORK/JUNE 22. 1981
to Todd." Mark said he wanted Jimi
Hendrix's "All Along the Watchtower"
played at his funeral. A prolific cor-
respondent, Mark ended letters to his
friends with quotes from some of his
favorite musicians, including Bob Dylan
and |ohn Lennon.
He admired Lennon and argued that
he was the most talented of the Beatles.
But in high school, Mark's prayer group
had a standing gag about Lennon's song
"Imagine." "Imagine," they sang, "im-
agine if )ohn Lennon was dead." Mark
said he thought the lyrics sounded Com-
munistic. Later he would accuse Lennon
of arrogance for declaring publicly that
the Beatles were more popular than
Jesus Christ.
When it came to his own musical
ability, Mark was no match for "gods"
like Rundgren or Lennon. Taught to
play the guitar by his father, he cared for
the instrument religiously, even refusing
to take it out of its case in humid weath-
er. When he was asked to sing solo in the
chorus, he grew visibly nervous. "He'd
get frustrated easily," recalls Miles Mc-
Manus. "He'd go out and buy a $150
guitar. He'd practice on it for a while.
Then someone would say something
negative and he'd just give his new
guitar away. He'd say, 'Take my guitar.'
That happened more than once."
It was the YMCA that provided the
anchor for Mark's life. He hoped to get
a college degree and become a YMCA
director like his idol Tony Adams. And
if he was really lucky, he would marry
Jessica Blankenship, the pretty girl with
the long dark hair, whom he had met
while still in high school. Together they
would become Christian missionaries or
go abroad for the Y. After graduating
from high school, in 1973, Mark took
courses at DeKalb Community College,
in the meantime raising money for his
first stab at YMCA overseas work. In
1975, he left for Beirut.
Mark's stay in Lebanon was short-
lived. Civil war erupted shortly after his
arrival. Mark made a cassette of bomb
explosions and machine-gun fire. Evac-
uated just two weeks after he got
there, he played the tape over and
over for friends. Shortly afterward,
in the summer of 1975, David C. Moore
— now a YMCA executive in Chicago
but then executive director of YMCA
services in Fort Chaffee, Arkansas, over-
seeing the arrival of Vietnamese refu-
gees — got a call from someone in his
New York office. He said he had
someone who was just back from Leba-
non. Mark arrived within the next few
days.
"It was a young staff," says Moore. "It
was exciting. TTie whole refugee issue
was very fresh: hundreds, thousands of
Vietnamese were arriving every day. We
were a part of history. It was the best
staff I ever worked with; they all put in
twelve- to eighteen-hour days. But of all
of them, Mark was outstanding. It was
his sense of humor. And he was very,
very concerned about the refugees.

'^..His moods shifted wildly from the meek and obsequious to
the grandiose and arrogant. A nonentity became a surly brute. . . "
Old friend*: Chapman with Dana Reeves at Fort Chaffee in 1975.
"When his girl friend, lessica, came to
visit him, I invited them over to dinner.
Gosh, they were like a couple of kids
from the country. She was charming,
intelligent, quiet, intense. She was the
best thing that ever happened to him."
Mark, then twenty, pursued her, like
his other passions, without any re-
straints. "He would talk about her end-
lessly," says Rod Riemersma, who
bunked with Chapman during the Fort
Chaffee program. "He used to call her
up all the time on the WATS line. And
when she came for her birthday visit, he
had the marquee of the Holiday Inn
reading happy birthday, iessica. It was
signed mark." He saw her home to the
motel each night, and he went back
alone to his apartment in Fort Smith.
According to one of his closest friends
at Chaffee, "virtually everything Mark
did during that period he did because of
lessica. His whole involvement with re-
ligion. Even what he ate and drank. He
wouldn't drink alcohol, or Coca-Cola, or
any kind of soda pop — anything that was
bad for your body. He said how dis-
pleased she would be if he had a beer.
He was so concerned with doing the
Christian-like thing."
BY DECEMBER OF 1975, THE FORT
Chaffee program was ending.
Nearly all the camp's 29,000
Vietnamese ' refugees had
been placed in the homes of
sponsoring families. Formal closing cer-
emonies were only a day or two away,
but Mark, uncharacteristically, had de-
cided to leave early. His friend Dana
Reeves had driven the 675 miles from
Atlanta to Fort Chaffee to pick him up.
Tall, slender, with angular features,
Dana Reeves made a striking contrast to
Mark's friends. Some years older than
Chapman, Reeves now works the grave-
yard shift for the police department in
Henry County, not far from Atlanta.
Reeves had known Mark since he was in
high school, but he struck Mark's Atlan-
ta YMCA friends as an unlikely compan-
ion for Chapman. His friends at Fort
Chaffee were particularly jarred when
Reeves showed up with a white-handled
revolver in his gear. "As soon as Dana
arrived, Mark's behavior changed," says
a friend, remembering Mark's last day at
Fort Chaffee. "Mark cleaned his nails for
Dana, he put on clean clothes for Dana,
he made telephone calls for Dana. And
there was Dana's gun. Mark was so non-
violent. He hated guns. I still remember
them sitting in the office of the YMCA
center at Fort Chaffee, playing with this
gun, looking at it, talking about it. It just
wasn't like Mark. They started rough-
housing, then Dana gave Mark this look.
He froze."
A few minutes later, Mark's friends
gathered outside with him and Dana to
say good-bye. It was a crisp, clear day,
and with the refugees gone, it was eerily
quiet. Most of the white barrack build-
ings were empty. The small group had
almost all of Fort Chaffee's barren six
square miles to itself. Mark got in the car
with Dana and called out to the people
with whom he had spent the happiest six
months of his life. As Rod Riemersma
remembers it. Chapman said, "We're all
going to get together again. One day,
one of us is going to be somebody.
About five years from now, one of us will
do something famous, and it will bring
us all together." It was December 1975.

even had a summer job lined up at the Y
in Atlanta. "If any of us at Fort Chaffee
had a future, it was Mark," says a friend.
"If you had told me he was delusional, I
would have said you were. But when I
saw him in the summer of 1978, things
had changed."
By that time, there were 30 extra
pounds on .Mark's five-foot-eleven
frame, and he was slovenly and pro-
foundly depressed, presenting a deeply
disturbing contrast to the trim, fas-
tidious young man of two years earlier.
According to the same friend, "Mark
told me, 'My life is gone.' He said that,
because he had failed in certain areas,
society had decreed there was no life left
for Mark Chapman."

NEW YORK /JUNE 22. 1981
The breakdown had come quickly.
From the moment Mark left Fort Chaffee
in 1975, virtually everything began to go
wrong for him. School, lessica, the
YMCA, his family — one by one the
sources from which Mark drew his iden-
tity collapsed. He dropped out of Cove-
nant College after one semester. "I real-
ly cracked up," he told David Moore
later. "I was a failure, and lessica made
me see it, and I screamed at her. I de-
manded that she not leave me."
lessica left him nonetheless, and sud-
denly Mark found himself both alone
and barred from the career he had been
planning. Without a college degree, he
could never become a YMCA director.
One day at summer camp in 1976, he
had exploded at a parent of one of the
campers. "1 know how easy it is for that
to happen," recalls a friend. "But it
wasn't like Mark. He thought he really
had destroyed the whole summer pro-
gram." Following that incident, Mark
quit the Y. He took a job as a security
guard, which brought him a gun permit.
He took to the training and became an
excellent shot.
At the same time, Mark's family was
falling apart. When he was a schoolboy,
his mother and father fought so much
that he would frequently stay with
neighbors. Now that his younger sister

was growing up, there was no longer any
reason for his parents to stay together.
Despondent, Mark decided that he
would live out his one last fantasy. He
had always wanted to see Hawaii. A
friend recalls, "He told me he went there
with the idea of killing himself. He said
that was his biggest dream." He would
go there and then he would kill himself.
Or at least he would try.
NOT LONG AFTER HE ARRIVED IN
Honolulu in 1977, Mark at-
tached a hose to the exhaust
pipe of his car, fed it into the
interior, and climbed in to
wait. The attempt failed, and Mark was
hospitalized for psychiatric treatment.
in Hong Kong; his wife, Gloria Abe.
His mother moved out to be with him.
He later took a room on his own with a
minister. But there was no Jessica
Blankenship, no Tony Adams, David
Moore, or Dana Reeves to fill the ex-
panding void in his life. With a suicide
attempt and psychiatric treatment on his
record, he told a friend, he would never
be able to get even a low-level position at
the YMCA.
More impressionable and suggestible
than ever, Mark still needed to latch on-
to someone. When he failed, his behav-
ior became increasingly fragmented and
erratic. His moods shifted wildly from
the meek and obsequious to the grandi-
ose and arrogant. A timid nonentity be-
came an aggressive, surly brute. In 1978,
he took a jaunt around the world. The
next year. Chapman announced that his
goal was to be a housekeeper. In 1979,
he took a job as a S4-an-hour security
guard, then became a spendthrift art
collector.
Where did he get the money? That
remains a mystery. More significant is
the fact that a man of Chapman's modest
means would even consider the ex-
travagance of a round-the-world tour.

tion from David Moore, his Fort Chaffee
mentor, he stayed at YMCA's all over the
world.
In Geneva, Mark met up with Moore,
who introduced him to the international
head of the YMCA. "He was so im-
pressed by that," Moore recalls. One
night on a balcony overlooking Geneva,
Mark told Moore about his suicide at-
tempt. "As a joke he said, 'Let's talk
until the sun rises,' " Moore says, "and
then Mark told me about his failure with
Jessica, his breakdown, his attempted
suicide, and his problems with his
father. He was so naive. He couldn't
understand why the world was so
messed up." But, according to Moore,
Mark appeared to be recovering from his
breakdown.
When he returned to Hawaii, Mark
worked in housekeeping and the print-
shop at Castle Memorial Hospital, the
same hospital where he had received
psychiatric care. His supervisor, Leilani
Siegfried, remembers him fondly. "He
was delightful to work with," she says.
"He tried to please us so. And he was so
sympathetic to the old people. He would
play them Hawaiian songs on his guitar
and pay attention to them when nobody
else would. Some of them hadn't spoken
to anybody in years, but they started
again when Mark showed them some
attention."
Other job supervisors in Honolulu de-
scribe Mark in similar terms. But at an
employment agency in 1979, he pre-
sented an altogether different picture of
himself. According to his application, he
had worked with radios and weapons,
had guarded prisoners in the sherifTs
department in Decatur, Georgia, and
had a strong background in security. At
the bottom of the form, he casually men-
tioned the YMCA. "The Y just didn't
seem important to him," his employ-
ment counselor said. "He was interested
in firearms."

Mark was also interested in human
contact, and his search for it became
more and more desperate. In June 1979,
he married Gloria Abe, a Japanese-
American travel agent whom he'd met
while booking his world tour. He also
returned repeatedly to the employment
ofiice, eagerly trying to strike up a
friendship with his counselor. "Occa-
sionally he mentioned his family," she
recalls. "That seemed very painful to
him. But I was too busy working to really
listen. He was also quite interested in
art. He gave me a painting he'd done
himself with blue skies and fluffy
clouds."
Pat Carlson, a Honolulu art dealer,
watched his interest in art surge. "I've
never seen anybody with such an ob-
session," she told a Honolulu reporter.
"He would call me three or four times a
week to talk about his art." Mark spent
$5,000 on a lithograph of Salvador Dali's
Lincoln in Dalivision. Later, he returned
it and paid $7,500 for Norman Rock-
well's Triple Self- Portrait. "He was so
proud of that piece," Carlson said. "To
give you an idea about how consumed
he was by this thing, I know he bought a
book about Rockwell that he displayed
on his coffee table." On the cover of the
book was Rockwell's Triple Self- Portrait.
which had first appeared on the cover of
The Saturday Evening Post. "He had a
copy of the cover of the book laminated,
and put it on the wall of his apartment.
. . . He started writing letters and mak-
ing phone calls all over the mainland
trying to find a [copy of the magazine]."
Other acquaintances began to notice
Mark's erratic behavior. Barbara Linn,
who worked with Gloria at the Waters
World Travel agency, says she "felt a lot
of negativism oozing from him." The
husband of another of Gloria's co-work-
ers told a reporter that Mark snubbed
people, grunted curt greetings, and was
surly. He was impatient and would honk

incessantly if he was waiting for Gloria
and she was late. At his last job, he
found a target for his rage, Scientology.
Chapman's supervisor told a Honolulu
reporter that he compared the religious
sect to the Reverend fim |ones's suicide
cult in Guyana. And even earlier, in
1979, a witness saw Mark with a button
that read, "John Lennon."
But why Lennon, instead of another of
his heroes? Observes MIT psychohis-
torian Bruce Mazlish, "There is in-
evitably a certain randomness in these
kinds of fixations. When a guy is frag-
menting as much as Chapman, you can't
expect his reasoning to be wrapped up
in a nice neat little package."
Chapman shared his delusions with
no one. But one can speculate: that
Mark Chapman, who saw himself as the
savior of the children at Camp Koda and
later at Fort Chaffee, having failed to
make a career of the YMCA, would try
to fulfill himself in a fantasy world where
he would save small children as they
played in "this big field of rye"; that, like
Holden Caulfield in the novel, Mark
would wage his own private war against
phoniness; that, having failed one way or
another with Jessica, and, presumably,
with Gloria, with his employment coun-
selor, and with his art dealer, he would
find his identity in the cultural icons of
Salvador Dali, Norman Rockwell, and
lohn Lennon. But then he began to per-
ceive Lennon as a hypocrite himself,
one who had allowed wealth and success
to tarnish the principles he held holy.
Mark David Chapman, the catcher in the
rye, would go to New York.
ON SEPTEMBER 10, 1980, MARK
wrote a letter to Lynda Irish,
a schoolteacher friend from
Honolulu who had moved to
New Mexico. On it he had
drawn a picture of Diamond Head with
the sun, the moon, and the stars above it.
Mark wrote, "I'm going nuts," and
signed the letter "The Catcher in the
Rye, Mark."
On October 10, he sold his Norman
Rockwell to a Honolulu public-relations
man for $7,5(X). At about the same time,
Mark called his employment counselor
and told her he "had a new job to do."
On October 23, he signed the work sheet
at his job with John Lennon's name, and
left work for good.
On the twenty-seventh, Chapman
went to I & S Sales, a Honolulu
gun shop. The salesclerk — whose name,
ironically, is Ono — sold him a snub-
nosed charter Arms .38-caliber revolver.
A few days later, according to
sources, Mark was at the Waldorf-
Astoria Hotel, in New York. He also
spent some time at the Hotel Olcott, at
27 West 72nd Street, just half a block
away from the Dakota, the apartment
building where Lennon lived. He later
confided to a minister that he was wres-

tling with "good" and "evil" spirits.
By the second week in November,
Mark was back in Atlanta, seeking
solace from his torment. He found little.
He told friends that he had come to see
his father. Instead, he stayed with his
friend Dana Reeves.
If Mark still intended to shoot Len-
non, he did an excellent job of disguising
it. "If he had that on his mind," says
Reeves, "he put on a command per-
formance. He never made any delusions
known to me or anyone I know. He was
his old self of five years ago as far as I'm
concerned." He visited his chorus teach-
er from high school and a classmate,
Paul Visscher, both of whom said he was
the same old Mark.
The art of pain: A Chapman painting.
But he wasn't. He went to visit )essica.
The local press later reported that the
mother of an old girl friend, who refused
to be identified, had seen Mark and that
he had appeared to be disturbed.
Finally, Mark went by the South De-
Kalb branch of the YMCA. His old boss,
Tony Adams, had long since moved on.
None of the old stafT was there. So he
spoke with Pat DeCouq, a swimming
instructor who was a relative newcomer.
Mark went over to the swimming pool
and pointed out a tile with his father's
name on it. He asked if anyone still
remembered Nemo. No one did.
Mark returned to New York. A few
days later, he called Gloria. According
to the minister, Mark told her, "I've won
a great victory. I'm coming home. I'll tell
you about it when I get there." In Hon-
olulu, Mark made an appointment at the
Makiki Mental Health Clinic for No-
vember 26.
But he never showed up. On Saturday,
December 6, he checked back in at the
West Side YMCA, just nine blocks from
the Dakota. Though he had several
thousand dollars with him, he took a
room without a bath. Mark also carried
the letter of introduction to Y officials
that David Moore had written for him
for his round-the-world trip. Then, it had
been a virtual passport to YMCA's
everywhere, usually allowing him to stay
free. Here, he showed it to no one.

Mark began hanging out in front of
the Dakota. "I saw him the day of the
shooting," recalls one Upper West Side
resident, "and I remembered I'd seen
him there a couple of days before. You'd
always notice people waiting for Len-
non. This guy was shifting back and
forth like he was impatient."
Sometime around midaftemoon on
Sunday, December 7, Mark returned to
the Y and checked out of his room, in the
process severing ties once and for all
with what had been the most important
institution in his life. He then took an
$82-a-day room at the Sheraton Centre
hotel, at Seventh Avenue and 52nd
Street.
On Monday, Mark returned to his
vigil outside the Dakota, bringing with
him fourteen hours of Beatles tapes, a
copy of the new album by Lennon and
Yoko Ono, his .38 revolver, and his copy
of The Catcher in the Rye. He struck up
a conversation with a young blond fan
who was a regular outside the Dakota.
They lunched together at the Dakota
Restaurant, across the street. Afterward,
the two returned to their vigil. By 4:30
P.M. the two were joined by three other
fans, including Paul Goresh, an amateur
photographer who often waited outside
the Dakota for Lennon. A few minutes
later, Lennon left his apartment accom-
panied by Yoko. As Lennon stepped out,
Chapman held up a copy of Double Fan-
tasy for him to sign. John paused briefly
and signed his name as Goresh snapped
a photo.
"Did I have my hat on or off in the
picture?" Chapman asked Goresh. "I
wanted my hat off. They'll never believe
this in Hawaii."
Later, Goresh told Chapman that he
was leaving. "You never know," Mark
said. "Something might happen. You
know, he could go to Spain or something
tonight. You never know if you'll see him
again."
Shortly before 1 1 p.m.. John and Yoko
returned from the studio. As they
walked through the archway, Mark took
a step toward them.
"Mr. Lennon," he said.
Chapman assumed a combat stance
and fired all five shots from his .38 re-
volver.
In a few minutes, the police arrived.
By then, Mark had taken his copy of The
Catcher in the Rye out of his pocket and
had started reading.
A FEW WEEKS LATER, JOHN HINCK-
ley spoke into a tape recorder.
"I just want to say good-bye to
the old year, which was noth-
ing, total misery, total death.
John lennon is dead, the world is over,
forget it," he said. "Anything that I
might do in 1981 would be solely for
Jodie Foster's sake. Just tell the world in
some way that I worship and idolize
her."

YES, YOU CAN
BE TOO THIN
. .A study casts shadows on our cultural code of string-bean
chic— being too thin can be as dangerous as being too fat. . .
Some ladies smoke too much and some
ladies drink too much and some ladies
pray too much. But all ladies think that
they weigh loo much.
— Ogden Nash in "Curl Up and Diet"
RELAX. IF YOtAE BEEN GALGING YOUR
ideal weight the way most of us have —
by those familiar doctors' charts — and
you've managed to hover close to the
"ideal" level, then you're probably un-
derweight! And what better time to find
out than now, as we enter the season of
bare midriffs and voluptuous cookouts?
A recent National Institutes of Health
study, conducted in Framingham, Mas-
sachusetts, finds that being underweight
carries as many — if not more — dangers
as being overweight and raises questions
about the validity of current standards of
ideal weight. The study casts some seri-
ous shadows on the cultural code of
string-bean chic.
At least half the population will read
anything about how to reduce, and pub-
lishers are meeting that demand with
everything from the "ultra-fasting" diet
to the "sexy pineapple" diet. And you
may go to an obesity clinic or to Over-
eaters Anonymous, to a behavior-mod
program, to a health spa, or join the 13-
million who have enrolled in Weight
Watchers. We are, in short, preoccupied
with being skinny. But weight standards
are changing.
The Framingham study followed
5,209 men and women (ranging in age
from 30 to 62 years when they entered
the program), from 1950 to 1974. It
found the most desirable weight levels
for both sexes to be considerably higher
than the weight standards that have been
guiding the American population for the
past two decades. ("Desirable" or
"ideal" or "optimal" weight means
weight associated with the greatest lon-
gevity.)
Where did the current standards of
weight come from? In 1959, the Society
of Actuaries in Chicago published a
massive "Build and Blood Pressure
Study" (BBPS), which followed 3.9 mil-
lion insured men and women for the
nineteen years between 1935 and 1954.
Along with other information, it pub-
lished average weights and looked for an
association between weight and mortal-
ity. Its conclusion: The greater a per-
son's weight, the greater his risk of
death; the healthiest people were those
who were up to 20 percent below aver-
age weights.
Using the BBPS data, the Metropoli-
tan Life Insurance Company developed
tables of desirable weights related to
height for three frame sizes — and made
these tables available to physicians, pub-
lic-health officials, nutritionists, physi-
cal-education teachers, and the general
public. This was wonderful exposure
for the company, but have these tables
been misleading the American public all
these years?
We rightly associate overweight with
health risks, especially coronary heart
disease and diabetes. But studies relat-
ing weight to coronary heart disease
have been inconsistent, and researchers
speculate that variables other than
weight, such as the amount of fat and the
muscularity of the body, could be at
work.
The Framingham study has put Met-
ropolitan's weight tables to the test. Fra-
mingham used a table of five builds,
determined by weight, sex, and height,
with Group One the leanest and Group
Five obese. The greatest mor-
tality risk was found in the
leanest group. For women,
the mortality data formed a
"U" curve indicating prob-
lems at both ends of the
weight spectrum, but slightly
more problems in the leanest
group. The leanest group of
men had the highest death
rates from cancer and all oth-
er diseases except those of the
cardiovascular system.
In Framingham, the best
weight for a male of medium
build, five feet eight and a half
inches tall, is 170 pounds; the
Metropolitan tables set his
ideal weight at 146 pounds.
For a woman of average build,
five feet six inches tall, ideal
weight, according to the Met-
ropolitan table, is 132 pounds;
her ideal weight in Framing-
ham would be 147 pounds.
The risks associated with
being underweight start at 10
percent under the average
weights.
"We are not sure why we observed
what we observed," says the study's co-
author, Paul Sorlie, of the Biometrics
Research Branch of the National In-
stitutes of Health. "Maybe there is some-
thing wrong with being lean. Maybe you
can say resistance is down. We acknowl-
edge the dangers of being obese and the
value of losing weight for those people
much heavier than the average weights.
But we also want to point out that there
are risks attached to being underweight,
too."
7I1ERE IS OTHER EVIDENCE ON THE DAN-
gers of being too thin. An American
Cancer Society study published in 1978
spotlighted health problems in those
who are less than 80 percent of average
weight. These underweight men and
women, the study showed, suffer higher
mortality from digestive diseases and
cerebrovascular disease than their coun-
terparts who are close to average weight.
And underweight men (but not women)
suffer higher cancer mortality rates.
Other research shows that under-
weight teenage girls have delayed sexual
maturation and that a certain amount of

body fat is necessary for a mature wom-
an's reproductive system to function.
Scientists who spent fourteen years fol-
lowing 1,233 men working for the Chica-
go Peoples Gas Company found the
weights associated with the lowest rate
of mortality were 25 to 35 percent above
the ideal weights developed by Metro-
politan. Therefore, the "safest" weight
level in this study would, by current
standards, be deemed "overweight."
What could account for the dramatic
differences between the BBPS and these
studies? The BBPS followed only the
lives of insurance holders and has there-
fore been criticized as not representative
of the general population. Nutritionist
Ancel Keys carries the criticism even
farther: "The fact is that the tables of

' The 1979 figures are preliminary.
Optimal weight is the weight associated with minimum mortality
'ideal' or 'desirable' weights are arm-
chair concoctions starting with ques-
tionable assumptions and ending with
three sets of standards for frame types
that have never been measured or even
defined."
Paul Sorlie explains that though his
study had a considerably smaller popu-
lation than the BBPS, Framingham in-
cluded a broader range of people: "We
represented the spectrum of life, in-
cluding the healthy, sick, retired, un-
employed, etc. But because BBPS covers
an insured population only, people who
are underweight and ill would not be
accepted into the BBPS sample. Conse-
quently, no link between low weight and
mortality could be seen."
Even the BBPS figures are creeping
upward. An updated BBPS study was
completed by the Society of Actuaries in
Chicago in 1979. Tlie update, based on
research done from 1954 to 1972, reports
a number of changes that will lead to
revisions in weight charts.
The new BBPS shows that men 15
percent under the average weights suffer
increased mortality from pneumonia
and influenza, higher hypertensive heart
disease, and higher suicide rates. Cancer
and digestive -system diseases are as-
sociated with men 25 percent under
the average weights.
Cl
Women weighing 15 percent less than
the average weights are vulnerable to
pneumonia, influenza, and diseases of
the digestive system. Additionally, these
findings show a decrease in problems
associated with being over the average
weights. For unknown reasons, the re-
cent data imply that both men and wom-
en can safely weigh more than the 1959
data suggested.
Obviously, those ideal-weight tables
will be changing. But how much? Cath-
erine Crean, managing editor of the
Metropolitan Life Statistical Bulletin,
says, "The optimal-weight charts will
definitely be going up. We will have to
take into consideration the data from
Framingham and other studies pointing
up the dangers of being underweight.

Studies published by the Society of Actuaries in Chicago.
But the main guide will be the new
BBPS. It follows the largest sample —
about 4 million people."
Why have ideal weights gone up since
1959? Crean says, "The old charts were
true for that time, for that group. Those
figures may have been best for twenty
years ago for reasons we can't pin down.
Nobody knows why these changes are
showing up. Maybe we are eating differ-
ently."
Metropolitan will issue new guide-
lines later this year, and while Crean
admits that they will be going up by "a
few pounds," it appears that the figures
ought to rise by considerably more than
that. Others associated with the new
project say they would have no problem
with adding a full ten pounds in all
categories to the old optimal weights.
Doing so would bring these ideal
weights closer to the safe weights found
in the Framingham study, though Met-
ropolitan's desirable weights would
still be a few pounds under Fra-
mingham's.
"1 wouldn't quibble with a few
pounds." says Sorlie. "It would defi-
nitely be a step in the right direction."
And adding those pounds would proba-
bly take a lot of pressure off a lot of
people as summer's treats beckon and
we head for the potato salad. ^

ALL IN
THE FAMILY
. .Lanford Wilson's A Tale Told, not a lovable play, is more
commanding of respect than the others in theTalley cycle. .
WITH A Tale Told, lanford wilson
reafTirms his position at the forefront of
American dramatists. I find this third of
the projected five plays of the Talley cy-
cle less entertaining than Fifth of July
and less enchanting than Talley's Folly,
but somehow more imposing, more
commanding of respect, than either of
its predecessors. This is not a lovable
play, as the others are; there is some-
thing mundane or even dour about most
of its characters, and their very in-
tensities and eccentricities tend to be
less than appealing. But why not? Such
people exist in large, indeed over-
whelming, numbers and demand to be
anatomized on the stage. Let's say that
in Fifth of July Mr. Wilson wears his
Chekhov hat; in Talley's Folly, his
Giraudoux beret; in A Tale Told, his
Ibsen stovepipe. They all fit him equally
well, and he makes them convincingly
his own. But hats, though they may help
make the dramatist, do not make the
man; underneath them, Lanford Wilson
remains headily himself.
A Tale Told concerns the rich Talleys
in the house on the hill, during that same
Independence Day evening in 1944
when Sally Talley, down at the
boathouse, is being wooed by Matt
Friedman. The house is the very one that
the as yet unborn Kenneth Jr. will toy
with selling in Fifth of July; here we are in
its front parlor, which exudes Lebanon,
Missouri, concepts of comfort, gracious-
ness, and casual aflluence, but an
affluence that, what with a downward
turn in the Talley fortunes and the
strains of wartime, is beginning to edge
from the lived-in toward the moth-eaten.
Grandfather Talley (referred to by all
as Mr. Talley), the cunning patriarch
who started the mill that wove the Talley
wealth and now grinds out army uni-
forms, fluctuates between periods of
blithering dotage and full Machiavellian
acuity. His son Eldon, who now runs the
business together with Harley Campbell
(son of the former partner, and the fel-
low who ditched Sally), is a conscien-
tious and honest businessman, but
without the flair and verve of his father
and with a private life that is both
blemished (he has cheated, perhaps con-
siderably, on Netta, his wife) and shad-
owed (his father has usurped his very
identity). Sister Lottie (Charlotte) is a
gravely ill, cynically acerb spinster,
whose only remaining pleasures are pro-
voking the rest of the household and
promoting Matt's suit of Sally — partly
for vicarious satisfaction and partly as a
blow against Talley complacency.
Then there is Netta, a woman who has
been the moral and physical support of
her family, but who, as the scales are
though a redeeming feature, is not quite
a saving grace.
Beyond these, there is Viola Piatt, the
no-nonsense laundress, with her seven-
teen-year-old scheming tart of a daugh-
ter who initiates a threat to the Talley
respectability that Mr. Talley defuses;
this subplot also involves Emmet Young,
the Talley handyman, who inches into
Family chat: Michael Higgins and Fritz Weaver of the Talley clan.
removed from her eyes this evening and
night, withdraws into a shell within the
larger shell into which she would con-
vert the house. Son Kenneth (Buddy),
General Mark Clark's driver, is back on
leave from the Italian campaign on the
erroneous news that Mr. Talley is dying.
He has no stomach for the family busi-
ness, and is eager to start a more con-
temporary one in pre-fab housing upon
the end of the war. Daughter Sally, who
appears only marginally, you know from
the other plays. Timmy, the younger son,
has just been blown to bits on Saipan,
but is present as a ghost, zestfully relat-
ing to the audience and Lottie (who
seems to hear him) the events surround-
ing his demise. Olive, Buddy's wife, is a
foolish busybody, yet also a touching
homemaker — a simp with unexpected
slivers of spunk glinting forth from her
humdrum soul. Harley is your average,
well-off, moderately oafish provincial,
but with an intermittent jollity that.
upward mobility. Twelve characters,
then, some of them treated only
marginally, but all of them glaringly
alive and kicking and being kicked; in-
teracting, intriguing, injuring or getting
injured; and, every so often, extending a
helping hand instead of giving one an-
other the finger. I have described them
as characters rather than quoted their
dialogue, which is always idiomatic, fre-
quently racy, and sometimes pene-
trating. If I did not copy out chunks into
my program for reproduction here, it is
because I did not want to miss the next
Talley sally.
There are some weaknesses. Lottie's
motivation could be gone into more in-
cisively and revealingly; the business
aspects — financial finaglings and the im-
pending sale of the mill — might be made
clearer, the minor characters could per-
haps be given a little more to do and be.
Most troubling of all is Timmy's ghost,
who seems to have wandered in out of a
46 NEW YOflK/JUNE 22, 1981

play by David Rabe — a supernatural, or
merely theatrical, device that jars in
such an expertly managed piece of natu-
ralism. Of course, the character has his
legitimate use, opening a window as he
does on the greater cataclysm beyond
the intramural shattering of the Talleys.
But couldn't this have been achieved by
realistic means? To some of my stric-
tures it might be objected that there are
two more plays to come, that the com-
pleted Talley tally may fill in all the gaps.
But, surely, each play must also stand on
its own feet, as the previous two have so
firmly demonstrated.
Yet the strengths are equally patent
and rather more pertinent. A Tale Told is
spread across a larger canvas even than
Fifth of July, with business, war, and fam-
ily matters, as well as a sort of Budden-
brooksian decline of acumen over three
generations cannily sketched in. These
characters benefit both from their local
color, which pricks and tickles our at-
tention, and from the archetypal sharp-
ness of their contours, which compels
universal recognition and self-iden-
tification. At a time when most play-
wrights can produce only chamber mu-
sic, Wilson can write for a whole or-
chestra. Indeed, he uses both complex
harmony and moments of grating dis-
cord to excellent advantage. And his
range is, as usual, wide: He possesses
that Dickensian or Balzacian knowledge
of many professions, activities, modes of
being that puts the narrowness of a
David Mamet and even the inspired
monomania of a Sam Shepard to ul-
timate shame.
The Circle Rep production is, once
again, a collaboration of inspirednesses.
lohn Lee Beatty's set is of a noble sim-
plicity compounded of ingenious
stratagems, not least of which are
shrewd apertures for the ghost to appear
and vanish through and a piece of cen-
tral wall with fireplace that blots out part
of the hall beyond, even when sliding
doors to the right and left of it are
opened. Thus our pursuit of upstage lat-
eral movements is teasingly interrupted,
and the impenetrable mystery at the
core of this or any house smartly objec-
tified. Dennis Parichy has lit this fine set
so as to convey perfectly the effects of
the lighting and extinguishing of the
many Talley lamps, to evoke fully the
continuous play of illumination and
darkness as characters espouse one or
the other, picking away at the light
switches as if they could clarify nagging
uncertainties or shed appeasing obscuri-
ty. Laura Crow has provided telling cos-
tumes, and Chuck London persuasively
rural sounds.
The acting is of a high order, with es-
pecially arresting contributions from
Elizabeth Sturges (Lottie), Fritz Weaver
(Mr. Talley), and Jimmie Ray Weeks
(Harley). The others are not far behind.
and only Michael Higgins seems to me
too megalopolitan for Lebanon and too
dry for a former philanderer. Patricia
Wettig would be a splendid Olive if only
Marshall W. Mason, the able director,
who has otherwise yet again done ex-
hilarating justice to a Wilson work, had
not let her lapse into caricature. And I
don't think that there should have been
interaction between the ghost and an-
other character, although this may be
the author's, not the director's, doing. A
Tale Told belies its title: Almost every-
thing in it is dramatized, directed,
enacted to a fare-thee-well; we are not
given lumps of narration (except in the
ghost's soliloquies), but are, like true
albeit temporary Missourians, shown.
KEVIN WADE S FIRST PLAY, Key Ex-
change, is a story of nine Sundays in
Central Park for three Sunday cyclists
caught in one game: man-woman rela-
tions among thirtyish swingers, semi-
swingers, and would-be non-swingers.
Philip, a struggling popular novelist, has
a nonexclusive affair with Lisa, a pho-
tographer with yearnings for exclusivity.
Michael, an advertising man, has mar-
ried his dancer girl friend (an unseen
character, but as real as the others) only
to have her leave him for another, then
return to the hearth whose fires of happi-
ness seem now forever banked. Michael
and Lisa achieve a chaste (though, on his
part, not unerotic) friendship, even as
Lisa drifts away to another man from a
Philip now eager for commitment.
You might think that these nine
vignettes add up to a sort of geometry
rather than dramaturgy, and, certainly.
Key Exchange — a reference to Lisa's
offer to exchange apartment keys with
Philip, which he perceives as a mon-
strous deviation toward matrimony —
has its schematic aspects, as well as too
many tales told rather than acted out.
But the old stories are constructed out of
shiny new building blocks: virgin wit
that has not trafficked with other peo-
ple's perceptions, and an invaluable gift
for ferreting out the absurd in the quo-
tidian, the normal in the preposterous.
There are choice performances by
Mark Blum, who keeps Michael's sor-
rows crisp; Ben Masters, who skillfully
reveals the frangibility of toughness: and
Brooke Adams of the downward-curling
mouth, provocatively plangent voice,
and ingenuous sexiness, whose Lisa
moves us by the very intensity of her
clinging to sensibleness. Bamet Kell-
man's staging errs only in allowing Terry
Ariano's set a meaninglessly revolving
centerpiece, and in using the Fanfare for
the Common Man over and over until it
becomes commonplace. Otherwise, this
production of a piquant play by an elo-
quently promising playwright can ac-
tually make you forget the lack of air
conditioning at the WPA Theater. ^

. . In History of the World, Brooks's lack of finesse wears us
down. He has gone beyond bravado into sick humor. .
Movies/ David Denby
THE DECLINE AND FALL
OF MEL BROOKS
Mad monks: Brooks leads a cowled chorus line in the Spanish Inquisition number.
HALFWAY THROUGH MEL BROOKSS Hl»-
lory of the World — Part I, the title
"The Inquisition" flashes on a Ijlackened
screen, and the great man appears in a
red cassock as Torquemada, standing on
a balcony above a dreary Gothic dun-
geon. A Cole Porter-ish tune begins,
and Brooks bounces down a circular
staircase, joins a chorus line of
cassocked monks kicking up their san-
dals, and starts to sing "The Inquisition!
It's the Inquisition . . . !" Roguishly, he
vamps a group of tied-up heretics, urg-
ing them to convert ("Say yes, don't be
boring!"), while the heretics sing back
"No! No! No!"
As I laughed at this brilliantly di-
rected number, I began to realize that all
the heretics were Jews dressed in black
suits, black hats, and prayer shawls —
nineteenth-century shtetl clothes, so we
could recognize them as lews. As the
number continued, my laughter and the
laughter of other people in the theater —
which had been joyous — promptly sank
to nothing. Or almost nothing; an un-
easy titter at best. But Brooks is off and
running. Victims tied to torture wheels
that are like the cylinders of a slot ma-
chine are spun around by Torquemada
Mel; when three identically dressed Jews
turn up, money pours out of the wall.
Nuns in black habits arrive. Standing on
48 NEW YORK/ JUNE 22. 1981
the edge of the pool, they throw off their
habits, revealing white bathing suits and
bathing caps underneath, and then they
dive into the pool one at a time (the cam-
era travels down the line), like the swim-
ming chorines in an Esther Williams
aquatic extravaganza. Jews are then
dumped into the pool and disappear —
presumably pulled under by the bathing
beauties, who quickly resurface, arrayed
in the formation of a menorah, with
sparklers on their heads.
Long ago, Mel Brooks freed Jewish
comedy from self-humiliation (as
Woody Allen still hasn't), turning Jew-
ishness into a new kind of bravado. What
he did, I thought, was healthy, even lib-
erating — a way of announcing to ev-
eryone that American Jews need not be
responsible all the time, that they felt
safe enough to be clownish, even vulgar
(Philip Roth did the same thing in liter-
ature). But I underestimated Brooks's
bad judgment. Brooks is so confident of
his liberating effect that he's gone be-
yond bravado into show-ofT Jewish sick
humor. In the classic "Springtime for
Hitler" number from The Producers
(1968), Brooks showed two theatrical ad-
venturers staging a routine calculated to
outrage a Jewish theater audience. "The
Inquisition," Brooks's attempt to top
himself, is his own outrage, his attempt
to turn himself into a Hollywood de
Sade (those torture wheels are out of 120
Days of Sodom). He's trying for heavily
ironic "dark" jokes and Holocaust
cruelties — hilarity on the edge of an-
nihilation and all that — and he fails, be-
cause the impulse behind the number is
exploitive and pointless. The Jews are
there simply because their dress makes
them recognizable — and because
Brooks thinks Jews are always funny,
even as victims. And Brooks throws in
the swimming nuns only because he's
wanted to do an Esther Williams parody
for years.
History of the World is full of great
beginnings followed by a quick collapse.
The movie is a burlesque-show version
of history — life in different epochs as a
parade of fools, sadists, hucksters.
Whether wearing a pelt, a toga, a cas-
sock, or a ruffled shirt and frock coat,
man is always the same low, dirty animal
— a buffoon. Brooks's jokes fall below
the level of satire; his movie is show-
business blasphemy — funny, but not as
bold as he thinks it is. Instead of drawing
a mustache on the Mona Lisa, Brooks
draws one on the Last Supper, pre-
senting himself as a waiter who is trying
to collect the check (Leonardo shows up
and arranges the disciples on one side of
the table — better for the portrait).
Brooks has made himself master of a
kind of epic lowbrow surrealism — silly
gags lavishly mounted, utterly gratui-
tous, and then ruthlessly thrown away.
In Blazing Saddles, was that really Count
Basic's entire orchestra playing in white
silks in the middle of the desert? All for
one gag? In History of the World. Brooks
uses huge sets and dresses everyone in
togas and armor just to make jokes
about ancient Rome as a center for hus-
tlers, entertainers, and tummlers — a sort
of white-columned, marble Gros-
singer's. Brooks stars as Comicus, a
"stand-up philosopher" who plays the
main room at Caesars Palace, with hairy
legs sticking out below his toga. Ron
Carey is his agent, Swiftus Lazarus, and
Henny Youngman and Shecky Greene
are on hand. The marvelous black danc-
er Gregory Hines shows up, claiming to
be Jewish, and does a suavely relaxed
soft-shoe. Madeline Kahn makes a great
entrance as the Empress Nympho,
playing her as a cross between screechy
Queen of the Night and Long Island
bitch. Dom DeLuise, even heavier than
usual, does a euphoric fag Nero, his
hands entwined in grapes, his mouth
sucking, biting, chewing — he's obscene-
ly funny, an undulating mountain of un-
clean flesh. The form of Brooks's movies
is so open that if there's something you
can do, he'll fit you in somewhere. But
then he leaves you stranded, lost, trying
to be funny with stupid material.
Some of Brooks's mad obsessions
break through in ways that are embar-
rassing. It's bad enough that he shows
us, in the primitive-man sequence, what
homo erectus really means; he also has to
have various people pulling at Gregory
Hines's breechcloth to see if Hines is
really Jewish. Mel Brooks, who never
tires of joking about gays, is more ob-
sessed with phallic size than any habitue
of Eighth Avenue pom films. Brooks the
heterosexual size queen concocts such
bizarrely lewd sequences as Madeline
Kahn's selecting men from the Roman
legions for an orgy (armored to the waist
but bottomless, the men are photo-
graphed from behind) on the basis of
priapic attainment. What Brooks may
not understand is that the audience isn't
necessarily obsessed in the same way he
is. What he takes to be the glorious folk
humor that modern people have re-
pressed looks to many of us like the tired
jokes that were yawned off the burlesque
stage 50 years ago.
Brooks sets up his French Revolution
sequence splendidly: a Fragonard look
to the frolics among the nobility; Harvey
Korman, as an epicene count, resplen-
dent in peruke and beauty mark; Cloris
Leachman, with the largest wart in his-
tory, as Madame de Farge. But then
Brooks destroys the whole thing with
dumb chamber-pot and gang-bang
jokes. He underestimates and misjudges
us every time. We want to be taken low,
of course, but for laughs, not to be freed
of our hang-ups. Brooks offers an ideol-
ogy of low humor: He thinks body func-
tions and cruelty are the basis of all
honest laughter. But his insistence, his
lack of finesse finally wear us down. We
laugh, but with gathering feelings of re-
volt and then of boredom.
THE ORIGINAL Superman, directed by
Richard Donner, was one of the
most disjointed, stylistically mixed-up
movies ever made. TTie mystico-sub-
lime rubbed elbows with low farce
and pop irony, and everything gave
way to disaster-movie squareness in
the end. But now all is well. Richard
Lester, of Beatles-movie fame, took over
the direction of Superman II, and
Lester has brought unity and a high style
to the material. The fantasy and play-
fulness that Lester has always striven for
fall to him easily this time, and without
the nagging, jumpy irritability that

" . . . Lester brings high style to Super-
man //—the summer's best spectacle. .
turned so many of his other movies sour.
Gene Hackman returns as master
criminal Lex Luthor, and this time he's
been given jaunty lines; Haclcman re-
sponds with an effortlessly funny per-
formance as the fast-talking opportunist,
completely indifferent to everything but
his own interests. Hackman's Lex
Luthor gives the pop fantasy a knowing
tone. The three revolutionary traitors,
expelled from Krypton and now eager to
rule the earth, give it grandeur and men-
ace. What a superbly evil trio! Terence
Stamp, as the masterful General Zod,
has a clipped black beard, an ice-cold
voice, and a fanatic's burning eyes (you
aren't surprised when his gaze knocks
down buildings). Like all great pop vil-
lains, Zod is an aesthete and snob — the
physical weakness of earthlings disgusts
him so much that he doesn't take much
pleasure in killing them. At his side are
two other creatures in black: Non (Jack
O'Halloran), a voiceless brute with a
brow like a cement fa9ade — a stupid su-
perior being; and the sexy witch Ursa
(Sarah Douglas), devastating in her
shiny interplanetary dominatrix rig.
These three are so advanced they are
like ballet dancers walking among clods.
When they land in an American hick
town, Lester and the screenwriters
(Mario Puzo, David and Leslie Newman)
do comic riffs on an old invaders-from-
outer-space movie. Without thinking
anything of it, Zod walks on water (a
red-neck sitting in a rowboat gapes), and
all three, flying past Mt. Rushmore, in-
stantaneously carve their own images on
the rock face (Lincoln's nose falls to the
canyon floor with a dismal crash). Their
high-style nastiness brings the movie to
life. Without these super-villains, there's
no tension, just a dull procession of Su-
perman's miracles.
Superman, of course, is an adolescent
fantasy of strength and sexual prowess
masquerading deliciously as weakness
— Clark Kent, timid and prissy, the fum-
bler in glasses. Just as before, Christo-
pher Reeve's little smile and charming
modesty make the conceit work. By
openly enjoying his role, by showing an
actor's pleasure in the notion that put-
ting on glasses makes one a eunuch and
taking them off a stud. Reeve takes away
the queasiness we might feel; he turns
the fantasy into a sophisticated joke.
With his suits that fit awkwardly, his
heavy shoulders drawn up in embarrass-
ment. Reeve as Clark Kent is like an ath-
lete at a press conference — abashed, out
of it. Encased in those ridiculous blue-
and-red tights, however, his bulk is no
longer a burden; he's muscular but lithe,
clean but not square, and when he raises
his arms and simply glides into flight, as
if submitting to his own power as a sen-
sual experience, he's beautiful.
As the adoring Lois Lane, Margot
Kidder has stopped smirking; her sexual
longing for Superman now seems ro-
mantic — he's a nice man as well as the
fellow who sweeps her into the air.
When Lois suspects that Clark might ac-
tually be Superman, she jumps into
Niagara Falls to see if he will rescue her,
allowing for the nuttiness of her act, she
could be any woman testing her man's
loyalty and love. Superman II is still a
pop daydream, but it has its roots in
common feelings (unlike Raiders of the
Lost Ark), and the emotion enlarges the
fantasy, takes the pre-packaged gleam
off it. There's even a powerful note of
pathos this time: In order to make love
to Lois, Superman is forced to give up
his powers. Beaten up by a common bul-
ly at a truck stop, he feels pain and hu-
miliation for the first time; part of the
pain for him comes from confronting the
sordid arbitrariness of power — some-
thing he's never displayed himself, even
with his much greater strength.
Superman re-arms himself to fight
General Zod and his gang, and Lester
begins to have a ball. The struggle above
Manhattan is a series of oflFhand colossal
feats — Jovian play. Superman smashes
Non into the giant Coca-Cola sign above
Times Square, and the sign explodes in
an uproar of coruscating red flashes.
The three invaders open their mouths,
blowing down the earthlings who come
to help Superman with gale-force winds;
in a true Lester touch, cars, people, and
refrigerators are swept up in the rush of
air, while one man, talking on the
phone, continues his conversation lying
on the curb, even after the phone booth
has blown away. Few movies have made
the confrontation of man and super-
natural power so astonishing and so fun-
ny. Superman II is easily the best specta-
cle movie of the season.
A PATCH OF DREARINESS CALLED Rich-
ard's Things confirms an earlier suspi-
cion that Liv Ullmann falls apart outside
the movies of Ingmar Bergman and Jan
Troell. Playing a middle-class English
woman who has an affair with the girl
friend of her late husband, she keeps a
look of glassy, dull respectability on her
face, relieved by some of the most ac-
tressy bits of business she's ever done.
She approaches a ringing telephone so
gingerly it might be a time bomb; she
wrestles cigarettes into her mouth and
then doesn't light them. Indeed, she is so
solemn that she turns the woman's les-
bian affair into a penance.

On Film/ William Wolf
DUCKING
THE TOUGH ONES
. .There's no reason to sneer at escapism. The letdown comes
when a movie pretends to be deeper than it really is. . ."
THE FACE OF FILMMAKING HAS NEVER BEEN
more realistic. Directors travel the world
to ferret out exotic locations; pubic hair
has gone public; killing (let us count the
ways) is depicted graphically; and child
actors spout profanities onscreen. But
when it comes to more challenging
realism — portraying the deeper truths
about people, relationships, and life on
our planet — movies still tend to be shal-
low, shifty, and sugarcoated.
Despite the celebration of film as the
great twentieth-century art form, more
often than not, producers and audiences
alike continue to treat the medium as
escapist entertainment. Those films that
do have more serious aspirations are
usually diluted to accommodate the de-
mands of mass entertainment and bot-
tom-line economics. It's all right to pose
problems, but the resolution had better
be upbeat lest the audience go home up-
set or depressed, ready to bad-mouth the
film as a downer.
Kramer vs. Kramer and Ordinary Peo-
ple, the most popular, widely acclaimed
dramatic hits of the past two years, are
cases in point. The plot development,
characters, and motivations in Kramer
vs. Kramer dictate a much tougher end-
ing, in which Dustin Hofi'man has to ac-
cept defeat when Meryl Streep wins the
battle for custody of their son. But the
audience has been primed to root for the
extremely likable Hoffman. When, de-
spite her victory, Streep magnanimously
opts to give the boy to her ex, the au-
dience is able to revel in Hoffman's joy
without qualms about Streep. It's the
requisite happy ending, even though the
custody conflict has no happy all-
around solution.
Ordinary People strikes a chord with
audiences who can relate to the emo-
tional turmoil of a well-heeled suburban
family. The final breakthrough in father-
son communication and the son's new-
found psychological insights afford the
audience an emotional high. But the film
hedges on the undemonstrative, seem-
ingly selfish mother. She is made the
heavy without enough delving into what
molded her personality. Giving the
mother her due would have made the
film more complex, increased the de-
mands on viewers — and ruffled the dra-
matic tidiness of the ending.
Comedies could also benefit from
more realism. Much as I was entertained
by The Four Seasons, it occurred to me
that while one of the men cheats on his
wife, and his two friends moralize about
it, there isn't the remotest recognition
that the wives might even daydream
about a secret fiing, let alone enjoy one.
Perhaps the gap is merely writer-direc-
tor Alan Alda's male orientation, but
then, too, wifely infidelities might upset
moviegoers who find it easier to laugh at
more-time-honored, male indiscretions.
Timidity is by no means limited to
American films, as two current imports
show. / Sent a Letter to My Love, an in-
teresting but soapy vehicle for Simone
Signoret and )ean Rochefort, hints gin-
gerly at incestuous feelings that beg for
more candid consideration. However,
that would have embarrassed those who
prefer their latent incest with a dash of
sugar, or at least Sweet 'n Low.
From Russia with lots of love comes
Moscow Does Not Believe in Tears, this
year's Oscar winner as Best Foreign Lan-
guage Film. The amiable, once-over-
lightly story of three women seeking
happiness in a society that looks sus-
piciously bourgeois was surely designed
to give Muscovites a smug sense of iden-
tification. Hollywood apparently recog-
nizes a mirror image when it sees one;
the Oscar voters chose this pleasant
trifle over Akira Kurosawa's splendid
sixteenth-century epic, Kagemusha, and
Fran9ois Truffaut's The Last Metro, a
film about wartime collaboration and
anti-Semitism in France, which, for all
its shortcomings, is better crafted.
Among domestic Oscar entries, Mar-
tin Scorsese's Raging Bull proved far
more sophisticated cinematically than
Ordinary People. The director's trans-
gression was to focus on a character de-
void of the redeeming qualities needed
to win audience sympathy. Accordingly,
viewers — and presumably Oscar voters
— were sharply divided. By not com-
promising and trying to make lake La
Motta more appetizing, Scorsese left au-
diences impressed, but also depressed,
thereby diminishing the film's chances.
I'm always amazed at how agitated
otherwise levelheaded individuals can
get over movies that deviate from the
preference for pleasant experiences. A
common complaint about Bob Fosse's
All That Jazz was that he used shots of
open-heart surgery. How dare he! An-
other example, Just Tell Me What You
Want, was unyieldingly acerbic in its
comic portrayal of the predatory couple

(Alan King and Ali MacGraw), making it
tough on audiences who want charac-
ters they can love.
Far too few American films attempt
social comment, and when they do,
they're likely to run into trouble. Al-
though primarily a cop story, Fort
Apache, the Bronx painted a grim pic-
ture of urban blight, provoking protests
by community groups demanding a
more positive treatment. The usual fall-
back formula for dealing with social is-
sues is to lay on the gloss. Director
Martin Ritt did this in Norma Rae, ren-
dering Sally Field's gutsy battle for un-
ionization consistently heartwarming, if
not always totally believable. The China
Syndrome, a thriller in the tradition of Z,
made its anti-nuclear message more
palatable by carrying Jack Lemmon's
heroism to ultra-noble heights. The Deer
Hunter resorted to the gimmicky Rus-
sian-roulette metaphor instead of dig-
ging deeper into the Vietnam tragedy.
I'm afraid my standards for movie re-
alism were irrevocably changed when I
first discovered the Italian post-World
War II masterpieces Open City and Bi-
cycle Thieves. Even The Best Years of
Our Lives, of the same period and at the
time considered lifelike by American
standards, was tinsel by comparison.
The beautiful simplicity and candor with
which Satyajit Ray portrays life in India
has further spoiled me.
Curiously, some of the films that turn
out to be most emotionally realistic are
not realistic at all. The still very relevant
farce Dr. Strangelove (1963) leaves one
with a sick feeling along with the laugh-
ter by conveying with gallows humor the
utter insanity of the nuclear-arms race.
Bonnie and Clyde, the violent but often
poetic saga of bank-robber folk heroes
of the 1930s, caught the emotional tem-
per of the rebellious 1960s. Although
bizarre and futuristic, A Clockwork Or-
ange (1971) unnervingly expressed the
mounting, mindless violence overtaking
our society. These films evoked irritation
or anger but were welcome antidotes to
the industry's tendency to play it safe —
the bland leading the bland.
Fortunately, throughout film history
there have been superb exceptions to the
rule — those films that have not flinched
from getting closely in touch with life on
some important level, whether personal
or political. There is no reason to sneer
at good films made for escapist enter-
tainment; the letdown comes when a
film pretends to be deeper than it is.
In the present atmosphere of industry
instability, ambitious filmmakers trying
to create works that ring true may feel
even greater pressures to compromise.
It's too early to predict how crippling an
effect the Moral Majority mentality will
have, or whether a resulting polarization
in the country will produce a backlash of
new creative boldness.

AN AFGHAN
DETOUR
" . . . Discover the brochettes and stews of Afghanistan, the
spicy fried half-moons, the trailing scents of cumin, mint. .
GEOGRAPHY IS NOT MY STRENGTH. IF IT
weren't for the Russian invasion I would
have no clue where to find Afghanistan.
Gastronomically, too, the country is
something of a mystery. In the 1,000 vol-
umes of my culinary library I can't find
even a nod to the Afghan kitchen. Arme-
nian, African, Arcadian, Abruzzian, yes.
Afghanistan is one stewing pot not
sampled by the irrepressible busybodies
of the Time-Life cookbooks. But ambi-
tion, persecution, and wanderlust do
bring the world's cuisines to us. And
what delicious discoveries — the bro-
chettes and stews of Afghanistan, the
spicy little fried half-moons and tri-
angles, the soft meat-filled dumplings,
the delicate perfumed pilaf, the bracing
thick soups . . . the trailing scents of
cumin, cardamom, mint ... the heat of
cayenne and fresh hot pepper against
yogurt's coolness.
THE GEOGRAPHY OF 43RD STREET BETWEEN
Sixth Avenue and Broadway is, quite
frankly, forbidding. Xenon is a magnet
at night, of course, for the glitterati, the
flutter-bys, and those of us who like to
bounce about till two, but Xenon's
sawhorses and cheerless fa9ade scarcely
lessen the 43rd Street gloom. It's easy to
go by Little Afghanistan twice and
miss it, even with the address in hand.
And the interior is possibly even more
discouraging than the mean and shabby
entrance. A trio of sallow, sullen skulk-
ers. A deserted bar. One iconoclastic
duo dining in a sea of white tablecloths.
"We have no hope," the decor seems to
say, with its shabby, exposed vitals, its
travel posters framed in silver tape. My
first impulse is to flee. But then ... the
adventuress triumphs. Let's try it!
We are exhilarated by the lighting of
our candle, by the waiter's unabashed
clumsiness, his bemused good nature.
He is out of both wines we have chosen
from an unappealing, slightly overpriced
list. But all three appetizers enchant us.
Crisp fried sambosa ($1.75) — spicy lamb,
chick-peas, and beans tucked into pastry
half-moons. Boolaunee ($1.50) — a large
fried turnover filled with herb-scented
scallion and ground beef. (Each dish
with its own minty yogurt puddle.) The
scallion-and-leek-stuffed boiled dump-
lings known as aushak ($2), blanketed
with peppery tomato sauce and yogurt.
"Does Afghan food ever get hotter
than this?" we ask.
"Americans don't like it hot," our
host says sadly.
Our protest convinces him. Now even
the salad (for two, $3.95) is dynamite-
iceberg lettuce, yes, but curiously ap-
pealing, with slices of lemon, tomato,
and cucumber, ribbons of fresh hot pep-
The waiter is struggling. The owner
himself is layering salad into a giant tu-
reen. And in response to our advance
request for "something special" he has
made kichree krot, two dozen lamb
meatballs in a moonscape of mush (Is it
rice overcooked? With smashed bread?
No. It's mung beans and rice, he says),

spiked yogurt hot with cayenne . . . fire
and quencher all in one. Lamb kebab
($8.50) could be rarer. We forgot to ask.
And the eggplant with bits of lamb
($7.95) smothered in zesty tomato sauce
and yogurt is oily but delicious. Thick,
yeasty naun, the Afghan bread (95
cents), is irresistible. Desserts, I must
confess, are not. The waiter doesn't
know the name for the spice that trans-
forms Tetley into Afghan tea. It is
cardamom. In one corner I notice a tent
and piles of pillows . . . perfect for a
small dinner party, it seems to me.
"If you think you're in the wrong
place, you're in the right place," I tell my
friends a few weeks later. Somehow our
party of eight has grown to twelve. The
tent will not stretch. And the kitchen is
clearly overwhelmed trying to turn out
all those appetizers to order, even with
only four other customers in the house.
Wine disappears speedily in the lull.
And I'm serving the naun myself.

coction that is curiously appealing.
We sample zesty beef kofta kebab
($7.95); spicy hot marinated lamb on
skewers ($8.50); tasty chalow subsi, spin-
ach crisped with leek and lamb ($8.50);
eggplant, of course; and a delicate
kabule palow ($7.95) — a pilaf of rice
cooked in lamb broth with raisins,
almonds, and carrot strips, fragrant with
cumin. There is much too much of ev-
erything, more than I actually ordered.
Everyone agrees that the Afghan pud-
ding ($1.50), a cross between Elmer's
glue and baby food, is better than it
looks, but the walnut baqlawa ($1.75) is
stern and disappointing.
Much to my shock, the bill is $50 for
the meatball-moon mush — "nine por-
tions of a very special dish I prepared
myself," the owner explains. "It should
have been $75." Am I crazy? Is he?
Would I have ordered nine portions of
anything at a tasting dinner? I figure
it's a lesson well learned. Always ask

Lunch for two in the tent . . . nothing
could be more sensual or romantic. We
are sipping rose on the rocks. Somehow
ros6 seems invented for lazy Afghan
lunches. Draped languorously against
velvet pillows, backs to the worn and
empty room, we are thrilled by Little Af-
ghanistan's splendid, bold soups —
chockablock with chick-peas and beans
or vegetables and noodles, each stoked
with zesty tomato sauce, cayenne-hot,
yogurt-cool, mint-fresh, a meal for $2.
Beef ribs (S4.95 at lunch) are rare and
tasty. The chalow subsi ($4.95 at lunch),
boiled lamb in herb-and-leek- scented
spinach, is bland, the meat skimpy and
tough.
Dare I send readers to this tacky little
place? Will the kitchen (the chef is a
diplomat in retreat, we are told) be able
to feed more than six mouths at a time? I
sound out our host. "I am selling out any
day now, to an Irish pub," the owner
announces. The restaurant critic is dis-
mayed. Dr. Zia Jaghory is an anesthesi-
ologist eleven years in exile. He is rest-
less, angry about the invasion of his
homeland. Politics haunts him . . . and
dreams of liberation. You too might wel-
come an Irish pub if only four people
came by for lunch. "I keep this place to
remind people about my country," he
says. Afghan consciousness is his only
profit. Even New York's 2,000 or so Af-
ghans don't come that faithfully. "They
eat better at home," he confesses. Per-
haps he will hold ofT on the Irish pub.
Perhaps he will be a bit more generous
with the lamb . . . more demanding
when the customer says "rare" . . . more
imaginative and less greedy with the
wine list if business permits. I cannot
promise. A flash of success could quell
his wanderlust. Little Afghanistan is

HAPPILY. THE AFGHAN KITCHEN IS COMING
into its own uptown, too. Pamir
Restaurant is as welcoming as Little
Afghanistan is bleak. Oriental rugs and
Afghan saddlebags hang on bare brick
walls among the fake Tiffanys and
plastic stained "glass" of a departed ten-
ant. The gentle, amiable men who run
Pamir are shy — constricted by an in-
nocence of English, I suspect. But, alas,
the chef is timid too. The ubiquitous
tomato-and-bean spicing sauce here
lacks the pizzazz and fire of the West
Side rendition. And the skewered meats
are all too well done, even if you beg for
them rare.
But Pamir's little triangle and half-
moon appetizers are impeccably crisp
and delicious (though one evening the
sambosa were a bit skinny). Soft
scallion-filled dumplings are splendid.
And starters are served with shot glasses
of yogurt and a puree that tastes like
minced coriander. Actually, it's mint,
with ground walnuts and pistachios, a
hint of lemon and vinegar ... an .\fghan
pesto that would be sublime on pasta.
The wine list is more gently priced.
Yeasty strips of naun and salad are on
the house (though one night the salad
was warm, and even crisply chilled it
lacks the panache of the crosstown ver-
sion). Soup is inspired too.
Pamir's quabilli palaw ($8.25) lacks
the finesse of Little Afghanistan's, but on
its own it's a delicate, pleasant contrast
to the spicier meats. Norange palaw

choice if you ask for it very spicy. Lamb
kebab ($9.75) may or may not be juicy
and rare (most often not), but a bit of
lamb chop on the Pamir kebab sampler

orders of spinach and pumpkin ($2 each)

tifiable evidence of eggplant.

sound of it as well as curiosity to taste
fried pastry dusted with cardamom,
pistachio, confectioner's sugar. It's nev-
er on hand. But Pamir's baghlawa ($ 1 .75)
is an elegant, mildly sweet layering of
paper-thin pastry and walnuts. The Af-
ghan custard is consistent — sweet and
bland. It does not really grow on me.

BEFORE
PHOTOGRAPHY
. .MOMA's combative little show is not likely to dispel any
remaining doubts about the relation of photography to art. . ."
BY THE LATE NINETEENTH CENTURY. PHO-
tography was stirring up endless trouble
for its defenders. The mechanical dis-
coveries themselves held little ambigui-
ty: an application of silver salts to glass,
a bit of ardent chemistry to fix the image.
But the camera's greater intimacy with
the real world gave pause to critics like
Baudelaire, who argued that since a
photograph was not made up, like a
painting, it couldn't be art.
Ironically, hordes of artists are now
"making up" or manipulating photo-
graphs, while photography's purists de-
nounce them for violating the realism of
the medium. Apparently more eager to
continue the debate in nineteenth-cen-
tury terms, the Museum of Modern Art
rails on in Before Photography, a com-
bative little show organized by associate
photography curator Peter Galassi, who
was passed the football by department
chairman lohn Szarkowski.
In 1963, as Galassi relates it, Szar-
kowski heard a lecture by the art his-
torian Heinrich Schwarz on "photo-
graphic" developments in small Europe-
an landscape paintings prior to 1839, the
year that the diorama designer Louis
Jacques Mand6 Daguerre announced
the discovery of the daguerreotype to
the French Academy of Sciences and ex-
hibited his curiosities before stunned
Parisians. Schwarz noted the little paint-
ings' curious resemblance to the view
through a lens eye; the near-twenty-year
interval since that lecture may explain
why "Before Photography" seems so
quaintly grounded in an era when mod-
ernism was still earnestly proclaiming its
triumph over other art forms.
Galassi, from his ivory citadel, has
done little to update the argument. Aim-
ing directly at Baudelaire, he wishes to
demonstrate that "photography was not
a bastard left by science on the doorstep
of art, but a legitimate child of the
Western pictorial tradition." If any
doubters remain, they are not likely to
be convinced by the evidence here. The
exhibition is split into two halves: the
first, those humble little landscape stud-
ies from the 60 years before 1839 by
French, British, German, and Scandina-
vian painters who are seldom studied to-
day: the second, landscape photographs
from the 20 years (1850-70) after photo-
graphic chemistry was perfected. What
we are to learn from these modest works
is that the paintings "mark the emer-
gence of a new norm of pictorial
coherence that made photography con-
ceivable."
That is a statement of Eiffel Tower
proportions. It and others like it have
brought down on "Before Photography"
more hot dispute than any MOMA
offering since Arthur Drexler and col-
laborators hung Beaux Arts architec-
tural drawings on its clean Bauhausian
walls. While it may be a good idea to
tant town. A Wall in Naples, by English
painter Thomas Jones, typifies Galassi's
search for more and better pre-mod-
ernist frontality; the brick wall squares
off against the plane of the canvas with
enough flatness to presage Ellsworth
Kelly — if you don't mind perpetrating a
little historical mayhem.
The strategy is clever, but circular. If
Baudelaire's accusation still stings after
all these years, what better way to stamp
out the suggestion of illicit parentage
than to make the invention of the cam-

think of the history of photography as
more than a mechanical process, and to
link it with a "historical analysis of vi-
sion," one would prefer less talk and
more demonstration.
What forges the link between the
show's two halves, according to Galassi,
is "pictorial coherence": an objectified
rendering of a bit of fiat architectural
wall or natural rise of ground; a more
rational, realistic perspective; a de-
termination to catch the impressions of
the moment. The paintings are etudes —
studies for larger works — as in Con-
stable's square of clouded sky cut
through by a triangle of trees or
Friedrich Loos's View of Salzburg From
the Md nchsberg, in which a massive fore-
ground cliff nearly overwhelms the dis-
era dependent on a type of painting that
necessarily predates it? Galassi struc-
tures his arguments around a dogma of
recent invention known as the "history
of seeing" — academic shorthand for an
analytic method that prefers to dissect
stylistic changes in more quantifiable or
pseudo-scientific terms. This time the
topic of the lecture is the conceptual
shift in the understanding of perspec-
tive, from Uccello's awkward self-con-
sciousness to Degas's snapshot sophisti-
cation.
"Before Photography" attempts, con-
sciously or semiconsciously, to extend
the reach of formalist historical analysis
back into the dim prehistory of the
modem era, to claim even more territory
for that "photographic," or objective.
56 NEW YORK/JUNE 22. 1981
point of view in painting. Not only does
the existence of these proto-Degaslike
landscape studies link the invention of
the camera to a "true" modernist
aesthetic, in this view, but photography in
turn cordially justifies the paintings, giv-
ing what would otherwise be modest but
charming little scenes all the ideological
clout of great archaeological discoveries.
Galassi would have us believe these are
the remains of the rodents whose hot-
blooded genes spelled the end of lum-
bering allegorical monstrosities. The
pseudo-scientific strategy makes it eas-
ier for modernism to assert, as it was
doing with great fervor in 1963, that it
had severed itself from the past, that it
had become, sui generis, a new evolu-
tionary beast. Yet Rubens is still a bet-
ter painter than Thomas Jones, and
Constable transcends his small works
here.
Most of Galassi's zeal is harmless,
though one wishes he had spent more
time on the visual resonances between
the exhibition's two halves and less on
his defense of The Cause. Now that the
more outrageous exaggerations of mod-
ernism are being tempered by historical
revisionists, it's a curious piece of bad
timing for MOMA to subject us to more
ideologizing, unless perhaps it wants to
remind us where we've been and why we
had to leave. A more acceptable exhibi-
tion might have given us a look at artists'
use of the camera obscura — the "black
box," frequently used from the Renais-
sance to the mid- 1800s, that helped them
draw in perspective. TTiere is much to
reflect on in photography's relation to
art, and the camera obscura is a crucial
link. If we could know which of these
early landscape studies were done with
the aid of the device, we might make a
tougher and more constructive analysis
of Galassi's thesis.
Instead, the show ends with the pho-
tographs, which need no grand theses or
countertheses. These early experiments
in direct seeing are rare and magical.
After the camera was invented, photog-
raphers joyfully snapped pictures of any-
thing, anywhere. The photographs' bare
factualness, that same intimacy with re-
ality, mingles in the early works with a
graceful ingenuousness and a fascinat-
ing philosophical ambiguity. The tiny
muddy-hued painting The Roman Cam-
pagna at Sunset, by Francois-Marius
Granet, has almost the same subject as
Humphrey Lloyd Hime's photograph
The Prairie on the Bank of the Red River,
Looking South: first, a dark urban
horizon and pale sky; second, a dark-
gray slash of bare water and bare gray
sky. Yet they don't partake of the same
values. Granet's is artful, Hime's is not;
in fact. Red River would hold nothing
at all of interest except for the profundi-
ty of the history it already carried with it.

SNARES
AND STRATAGEMS
. .In Other People, Martin Amis goes Robert Louis Steven-
son one better: He integrates Mr. Hyde with Dr. Jekyll..."
Th« Comfort of Strangers, by Ian
McEwan. Simon and Schuster, $9.95.
Other People: A Mystery Story, by
Martin Amis. Viking. $12.95.
IN BOTH OF THESE NOVELS. MURDER IS
done (or may have been done), and in
each case victim and perpetrator are
ioci<ed in a death dance; but Martin
Amis uses the mystery-story genre as a
point of departure, while Ian McEwan
works inside the confines of the category
and enhances it.
As a psychological thriller. The Com-
fort of Strangers is nerve-rackingly satis-
fying. Colin and Mary, an unmarried
couple, are vacationing in a foreign city
very much like Venice. They are picked
up by Robert, who is rich and effusive,
and are bullied into accepting his heavy-
handed and prolonged hospitality. Why,
asks the wary reader from the safety of
his armchair, is this sophisticated pair so
sheeplike, so easily led? Why do they
shrug off disturbing observations, such
as the constant grimaces of pain made
by Robert's wife. Caroline; her admis-
sion that she had watched them while
they were napping, naked; and .Mary's
discovery in their apartment of a picture
of Colin taken with a telephoto lens?
What repressed fascination draws them
back again, into the trap that Robert and
Caroline have designed, are baiting, and
will spring? Has Mary and Colin's doc-
trinaire belief in the equality of the sexes
made them defenseless against the vio-
lence that lies at the outermost point on
the sexual spectrum? Has it made slen-
der, tapering, fine-boned Colin, of the
species Post-Feminist Man. the easy prey
of long-armed, hairy Robert, species
Throwback Man?
The Comfort of Strangers can be
viewed, as well as read, since McEwan
has a cinematographic eye and pays
close attention to the surfaces of things,
letting the changeable seaside light play
over and heighten those surfaces, buffer-
ing strangeness or horror with visual
beauty and leaving the real mystery at
the core of the story intact, the mystery
of the nature of human nature.
In Other People: A Mystery Story. Mar-
tin Amis goes Robert Louis Stevenson
one better: He integrates Mr. Hyde with
Ann Arensberg is the author o/ Sister Wolf.
Tim O'Brien is the author of Going After Cac-
ciato.
Amis: Brilliant satire with a moral edge.
Dr. lekyll. Amis invents an innocent
young girl, Mary Lamb (not her real
name), innocent because amnesiac, who
is dismissed from a hospital and has to
learn the world from scratch. She makes
her way through a picaresque under-
world populated by muggers, alcoholics,
tramps, wayward girls, squatters, and
rich dropouts, progressing from circle to
circle of a hell whose inmates (the Other
People of the title) incarnate the seven
deadly sins as redefined by .\mis: "venal-
ity, paranoia, insecurity, excess, carnali-
ty, contempt, boredom." Mary is not yet
bothered by her loss of memory; she is
able to live in the present, although pre-
cariously, since dreams of violence
haunt her sleep, and dreams come from
the past.
Throughout this period of false, un-
stable innocence. Mary's moves are
stalked and recorded by the Novelist, a
kind of petulant, scolding Virgil, who is
sometimes in control of his
character, but more often frus-
trated by her independent ac-
tions. The Novelist speaks in
various tones of voice, sound-
ing like a caseworker, like Mrs.
Grundy, like a worried suitor
or a desperate parent: "I want
Mary out of all this. I want her
out of this whole risk-area of
clinks and clinics and soup-
queues, of hostels and borstals
and homes full of mad women.
I want her away from all these
deep-divers. She might go bad
herself . . . she might smash."
Suspense builds as the Novel-
ist-Undercover Agent loses
ground; he has no choice but to
turn himself into a character,
John Prince, a plainclothes po-
liceman who shows Mary a
photo of a girl named Amy
Hide, a missing person who
may have been murdered, and
who may have "asked for it."
So much for Mary Lamb's
simplicity; she was one person,
now she may be two. Nothing
she finds out about Amy Hide
is reassuring. Amy had awe-
some beauty and sexual power,
and she used them to incite her
lover to revenge and madness.
When Mary discovers her own
sexual power and its hurtful properties,
she can smash the mirror and come back
from the other side. Reunited with
herself again, she can know the pain of
living and its ecstasy: "Everything in the
named world was pressing for admit-
tance to her heart; at the same time she
knew that all these things, the trees, the
distant rooftops, the skies, had nothing
to do with her. Their being was separate
from hers, and that was their beauty."
What is left for John Prince to do now —
lohn Prince, alias Prince Charming, alias
the Novelist. Mary's creator and watch-
dog, her unsuccessful murderer and
future killer? He must end the book,
which is a kind of murder: "I'm tired. I'm
not in control any more, not this time.
Oh hell. Let's get it over with."
Martin Amis, also known as the Au-
thor, is very much in control, however.
He is the master of his skepticism, his
flippancy, his appetite for metaphysical

speculation, and he holds a winning
hand of narrative devices, which he
places in the service of a brilliant satire
with a moral edge. — A.A.
July's People, by Nadine Gordimer. Vi-
king, $10.95.
ON THE STORY LEVEL, July's People IS A
novel of direct simplicity. Bam and
Maureen Smales are white South Af-
rican liberals who fully support the
cause of black freedom and justice.
Now, though, they are on the run. Revo-
lution has come to South Africa, and the
Smaleses abandon their suburban-
Johannesburg home, taking with them
only their three children and a few hasti-
ly gathered possessions. Guided by their
longtime black servant, a man they call
July, the Smaleses set off in their
truck, heading deep into the South
African bush, finally taking refuge in the
home village of their servant. July's Peo-
ple is a story of the newly disinherited; it
is a story also of human adaptation,
deprival, upheaval, and disorder.
Beyond that, it is a story that examines
the changing perceptions and the chang-
ing roles that social revolution can bring
to personal experience.
On its surface, July's People might be
called a "survival novel," an adventure
story not totally unlike Robinson Crusoe.
The Smaleses, after all, are marooned.
They are cut off from the world they
used to know, the world of clean sheets
and trimmed hedges and cocktail par-
ties. Indeed, that old, tidy world has
ceased to exist. Stranded and frightened,
thrown into a primitive environment of
mud huts and thatched roofs and the
smell of dung, they must learn to
fight the daily battles of feeding, cloth-
ing, and sheltering themselves. For-
tunately, like Crusoe, they have their
man Friday — a "native" — in the person
of their loyal servant, July.
Nadine Gordimer, who is perhaps
South Africa's most prominent and
skilled writer, does not restrict her atten-
tion merely to the difTiculties of physical
survival. With microscopic precision,
she develops a drama that is essentially
psychological. To survive, in this sense,
the Smaleses must come to terms with
shifting power relationships and expec-
tations with respect to their savior-ser-
vant.
Although July has lived and worked
with them for some fifteen years. Bam
and Maureen have never troubled to
learn his native name; although progres-
sive in their politics, they subtly,
perhaps thoughtlessly, allow the master-
servant relationship to endure. Even on
his own ground, even with the black
revolution exploding all around, July
continues to call Bam "the master." He
continues to serve.
And yet, as time passes, the old pat-
64
NEW YORK/ JUNE 22, 1981
Oct'
terns begin to fade. July takes command
of the family's truck, keeping the keys,
learning to drive, slowly expropriating a
piece of property that represents both
literal and symbolic freedom. For the
Smaleses, the truck is one of their few
remaining possessions, a means of es-
cape, a reminder of the past, and a hope
for the future. For July, the vehicle is a
tangible symbol of new independence
and new possibilities.
The drama of July's People is always
understated. Except for a powerfully
rendered confrontation between Mau-
reen and July near the end of the novel,
Gordimer prefers to develop her nar-
rative in a series of quietly unfolding
transformations of character. Bam slow-
ly disintegrates, humiliated by the loss of
power and property, unable to cope with
the inevitable consequences of his own
liberal politics. Maureen slowly retreats
from her husband and into herself; she
becomes estranged, not only from her
previous middle-class life but from the
man with whom she made and shared
that life. And July, in a sequence of low-
key scenes, slowly asserts himself, slowly
sheds his dependence on the Smaleses,
and slowly comes to realize the immense
change that has been wrought in his own
life.
In style, July's People is a dense and
often difTicult book. Gordimer's prose,
while elegant and complex, has a pecu-
liar sound to it, and a peculiar kind of
structure. Clauses appear in unexpected
places, forcing the reader to backtrack,
and it is sometimes irritating (though
just as often profitable) to reread a sen-
tence or whole paragraph in order to
capture its meaning. Breaking with con-
vention, Gordimer does not enclose dia-
logue within quotation marks, prefer-
ring the use of dashes, and this can
occasionally create unnecessary con-
fusion. When dialogue is embedded in
the body of a paragraph, it is sometimes
hard for the reader to know where
the dialogue begins and ends.
At her best, Nadine Gordimer is a
writer with unusual gifts for visual de-
scription and psychological exactitude.
With striking precision, for example,
Gordimer dramatizes the revolution in
Maureen's life by showing her unable to
read a book that she has carried with her
from home: "The transport of a novel,
the false awareness of being within an-
other time, place and a life that was the
pleasure of reading, for her, was not
possible. She was in another time, place,
consciousness; it pressed upon her and
filled her as someone's breath fills a
balloon's shape. She was already not
what she was." This density of prose
generates a density of character and
emotion, a tangled sense of human
beings lost in the African bush, de-
nuded, stripped of conventions, "exist-
ing only for their lone survival." — T.O'B.

Yarn
THE YARN PRICES HERE ARE NOT TO BE BE-
lieved; they run from $1 to $3 a lb. These
are the leftover yams from Offspring's
line of machine-knit wean although the
quantities of each are too small for fac-
tory use, there's more than enough for
the home knitter or crocheter. It comes
by the cone, and you have to buy the
entire cone — a full one runs about 2'/i
lbs., but many are less. At $1 per lb.,
there is mercerized cotton for sum-
mer sweaters, in darks, brights, neutrals,
black, off-whites — the whole spectrum.
Also, a group of miscellaneous yams in
very limited quantity. At $2 per lb.,
there is an assortment of (laked-cot-
ton and blended yams, plus a space-
dyed thick-and-thin yam in wonderful
color combinations. At $3 per lb., there
is a fluffy acrylic yam in pastels and
whites. Also: spools of Lurexyarn,
including space-dyed and bright-col-
ored items in solid colors (gold too), are
here in limited quantity; a few oz. are left
on the spool, but there's plenty for the
average sweater, and they cost $2 per
cone. You'll find knitwear here too,
priced lower than in the downtown
stores for which this firm manufactures.

AMERICAN POP-<lhr. 35m., '81) Ralph Bakshi's
ambitious animated feature about the history of pop
music in this country as reflected in the five genera-
tions of an American Jewish family. Starting in
Russia, the movie passes through Yiddish theater and
vaudeville in New York, swing, rock, and punk. Bak-
shi's temperament, as always, is morose, defeatist,
and luridly violent— he sees the life of his family as a
series of disasters. There are touches of Daumier,
Gross, and Ensor in Bakshi's drawing, but much of it
is annoyingly literal-minded for animation (Bakshi
uses a process called rotoscoping. which involves
photographing the scenes first and then drawing
them from the photographed image), and the whole
movie is joyless and pretentious. The music is a mix-
ture of famous recordings and freshly recorded ver-
sions of classics. R. 22, 101, 302, 402, 449, 504, 51 1,

ATliANTIC CrTY-(lhr 4Sm., '81) Shot in 1978, the
movie catches Atl^mtic City at its moment of civic
"rebirth"— i.e., its transformation from tattered old
tart to sparkling young whore. Meanwhile the losers
and dreamers who washed up on the shores of the old
Atlantic City and were comfortable there are begin-
ning to stir uneasily There's Lou (Burt Lancaster), an
elderly petty criminal; the sublime Grace (Kate
Reid), an aging moU who hit the boardwalk in the
forties for a Betty Grable look-alike contest and never
left; and hustling selfish young Sally (Susan Saran-
don), a refugee from Moose Jaw, Saskatchewan. Writ-
ten by John Guare and directed by Louis Malle, the
movie is sweet and affectionate but a little wan and
precious. The best thing is Lancaster's Lou. Dressed
like an Italian cavaUer in white siiits, Lancaster looks
at Sarandon with his tired old eyes, and the movie's
conceits almost seem like poetry. R. 52, 72, 531, 787
BLUES BROTHERS. THE-(2hr8. 1 3m.. '80) John
Belushi and Dan Aykroyd, doing their Blues Brothers
number from Ssturday Night Live, chase all over
Chicago trying to put on a blues concert. Along the
way they run into the likes of Aretha Franklin, Ray
Charles, John Lee Hooker, James Brown, and Cab
Calloway, all of whom get to perform— a little. It's a
little hard to accept Belushi and Aykroyd's pleasant
mediocrity as blues performers when these greats are
shunted aside after one number. Aretha Franklin and
Cab Calloway are especially marvelous. Much dull
comedy and innumerable car chases, spectacular
and fatiguing, pad out the movie. Directed by John
Landis. Written by Landis and Aykroyd. R. 36, 70,
78, 97, 109, 119, 201, 209, 210, 417, 426, 509, 512,

* BREAKER MORANT-(lhr. 42m., '79) During the
Boer War in 1901, an Australian unit working for the
British is fighting the bearded Boer irregulars (white
Dutch settlers trying to break away from British rule).
When Lieutenant Harry "Breaker" Morant (Edward
Woodward) executes soma Boer prisoners, the British
put Morant and his fellow officers on trial. The men
are clearly victims — scapegoats for hypocritical high-
er-ups who have informally ordered them not to take
prisoners alive. The film seems to take the position
that a man who commits an atrocity under orders
should not be held responsible; it may strike some
viewers as morally questionable or dishonest. But it's
a beautiful production— the fighting sequences are
fierce, the acting virile and commanding. With Jack
Thompson as the defense attorney. Directed by the
Australian Bruce Beresford (Th» Gotting of Wisdom).

* BUSTIN' LOOSEHlhr. 33m., '81) Richard Pryor, a
sneaky-mean ex-con, and Cicely Tyson, a high-
minded teacher, chaperone a bunch of variously dis-
turbed, unmanageable and irritating little kids across
the country in an old school bus. Leaving out the kids,
the romantic situation between the two stars is a slap-
dash reprise of the Bogie-Hepburn combo in TZie
African Queen. Richard Pryor is incandescently
funny. There isn't anything this man can't do in
comedy. His scenes with the children are possibly the
funniest business of this kind since W C. Fields took
on Baby Le Roy Magnetically beautiful and physi-
cally vibrant. Cicely Tyson is a warm, heartfelt pres-
ence—she's been missed. The movie runs down and
goes soft (the clear intention to please absolutely ev-
erybody in the audience is a little irritating), but the
early silliness is wonderful. Written by Roger L. Si-
mon. Directed by Ox ScoH. R. 24, 41, 70, 78, 80, 100.

CAF£ EXPRESS-(lhr. 29m., '81) Nino Manfredi,
star of Bread and Chocolate, is back in another Ev-
eryman role — a Neapolitan who earns his living ille-
gally by selling coffee without a license on the night
train from Milan to Naples. The director, Nanni Loy,
clearly wants to offer a microcosm of Italian society:
Chased by the authorities, Manfredi winds up testing
the humanity of every person he meets. He's a power-
ful actor; he gives the Chaplinesque figure so much
tinsentimental strength that he rescues the story from
its more gimmicky and banal "allegorical" elements.

CITY OF WOMEN-(2hrs. 18m., '81) Doesn't FelUni
ever tire of being Fellini? He's got hold of a new
subject here— the way feminist ideas have changed
women — and he digs into it entertainingly for a few
scenes but then retreats into the all- loo-familiar world
of his personal mythology. Playing the maestro's alter
ego, Marcello Mastroianni, handsome as ever, wan-
ders into a feminist convention— women milling
about or sitting on the floor, chanting, shouting, ac-
cusing, celebrating. Fellini isn't anti-feminist, but his
way of passing from one shouting woman to another
fuxses what the women are saying. The rest of the
movie is a sinister and wearying trip through the rec-
ognizable Fellini fun-house — the world of his fears,
his past, his fantasies. Much of this material, though
exuberantly colored as ever, has a peevish, de-
pressed feeling. And not one of the movie's dozens of
women is acutely observed or understood. Madon-
nas, whores, harpies, angels — and hardly a human
being among them. 89, 90
CLASH OF THE TITANS-(lhr. 58m.. '81) An ad-

with Charles Bronson and Lee Marvin. Dir. Peter
Hunt. R. 32, 54, 549, 606. 729, 760, 869
ADOOS OF WAR, THEMlhr. 41m., '81) Christo-
pher Walken, who has the surly, narcissistic glamour
of a European male model, brings a tense, angry
presence to the role of Shannon, a mercenary soldier
hired by a shadowy British capitalist to overthrow an
African dictator. Screenwriters George Malko and
Gary DeVore have pared away the entertaining jour-
nalistic detail from Frederick Forsyth's best-seller,
stripping the story down for action. The best se-
quence — Shannon's reconnaisance to the country
(called Zingaro, and based on Idi Amin't Uganda)
and discovery of what it feels like to go to a place
where all sense of order and civil procedure has van-
ished. Director John Irvin is serious about pace, atmo-
sphere, and narrative tension in a way that has
practically disappeared from movies. An exciting but
morally ambivalent movie: gloryifying mercenaries is
dubious stuff at best. With Tom Berenger and Colin
Blakely R. 1 1
* EYEWITNESS-(lhr. 42m., '81) Splendid romantic
thriller by the writer -director team of Steve Tesich
and Peter Yates, who did BreaJring Away together.
William Hurt is charming as the quiet and dreamy
janitor, a Vietnam vet, who distantly worships a gor-
geous TV rei>orter (Sigourney Weaver). V/hen a man
is murdered at Hurt's building, he pretends to know
a lot about the crime in order to keep her interested.
His boyish passion for her is impractical in the ex-
treme: he's from a background of lower -middle-class
losers, and she's from a family of unimaginably
wealthy Russian Jewish emigres. Tesich, an emigre
himself, may believe in American possibilities that
most of us are now skeptical about. The movie isn't
neat or ruthlessly suspensefid; the scary highs are
spaced out among the many moments of gentle obser-
vation and the reflections on friendship, fantasy, and
courage. The extraordinary cast includes James
Woods, Kenneth McMillan, Pamela Reed, Irene
Worth, and Morgan Freeman. R. 58
FAN, THE-(lhr. 35m.. '81) A blonde, presentable-
looking psychopath (Michael Biehn), obsessed with a
big-time Broadway star (Lauren Bacedl), terrorizes
the star's secretary, friends, and finally the lady her-
self. Since you know who he is from the beginning,
you get sick of watching him stalk and then attack
one person after another with a straight razor. Ed-
ward Bianchi, the director, juxtaposes the fan's grimy
obsessions and squalid life and the great lady's high-
powered whirl on stage, at rehearsals, and at home in
a cavernous Central Park West apartment. They seem
to be members of a different species: She's a queen,
he's scum, and there's no human connection between
them. Lauren Bacall, playing a fantasy of herself, is
fearlessly brave, fearlessly honest. When she finally
confronts her tormenter, she tells him she's sick of
creeps like him— this to a man who has killed four
people and mutilated two others! R. 16. 35, 44. 97,
101. 436. 507, 511, 534, 535, 549, 668. 705. 808,

FORT APACHE. THE BRONX-(2hrs. 5m., '81) A
despairing movie about the cruel, absurd, and hope-
less world of cops and criminals in the South Bronx
that nevertheless depends on stock characterizations
and TV-style dramaturgy. Paul Newman is the vet-
eran cop with heart— a man trying to approach the
day's nightmares with good sense and even gaiety;
Ken Wahl is the raw rookie; and Ed Asner is the
martinet who wants to "clean things up" without re-
gard for the human reality on all sides. You've met
them all before on the tube. On the other hand, the
Puerto Rican offenders are turned into crazed ani-
mals—no attempt is made to understand them. The
problem with the movie is not that "good" characters
are absent but that the "evil" ones are portrayitd so
shallowly Written by Heywood Gould. Dir. Daniel
Petrie. R 235, 442, 526, 542, 550. 613, 638, 644.
645, 654, 724
FOUR SEASONS. THE-(lhr. 48m., '81) Alan Alda's
debut as a director is both overexuberant and stale.
This paean to friendship is about three middle-class
couples in their forties who go on vacations together,
fight, make-up and roar with laughter (like people in
TV beer commercials). When not laughing and hug-
ging, they turn to one another and announce the mo-
vie's themes (Macho Competitiveness, Fear of Aging,
Fear of Death) as bluntly as communicants at a group-
encounter session. And except for Jack Weston, who
works up some Broad way-style performing rhythm as
a paranoid, babyish dentist, the actors look crushed
by the obviousness of the material. Would these six
ever be friends in the first place? They don't appear
to have much in common. With Alan Alda and Carol
Burnett (sadly underused) as the least neurotic cou-
ple; Rita Moreno as Weston's tolerant wife; and Len
Cariou as a virile insurance man who leaves his wife,
Sandy Dennis, a vague kook (the usual Sandy Dennis
role), for Bess Armstrong, an adoring young blonde.

* FROM MAO TO MOZART: ISAAC STERN IN
CHINA-(lhr. 30m., '81) In this first-rate documen-
tary, the violinist is not merely a great musician on
tour, he's a rainmaker bringing the juice to a parched
land— China, where, very recently. Western classical
music was denounced as decadent, music teachers
were thrown into jail, and even listening to a record-
ing of Schubert or Mozart was a criminal act. That
nightmare is now over, and Stern brings the goods to
an audience starved for it. The best stuff: His master
classes with highly talented Chinese students, in
which he tries to get them to go beyond the pallid

and Marie (Catherine Rilor6), a country girl who
works in a store, meet by chance in Lausanne, hitch
a few rides togettier, and soon abandon all thought of
leading a normal life. Hungry and broke, they defi-
antly bum their way back and forth across Switzer.
land. By degrees, they slip into criminality, and the
society that at first had seemed unaware of them turns
malevolent. The film has its mournful beauty, but its
despair is numbing— life within society is unworthy,
freedom outsida it is unreachable. Tanner gives the
material so little vivacity (both girls are spikily un-
communicative) that he dulls the power of his theme.

movie, adapted from the classic 1858 novel by Ivan
Goncharov, about a retired civil servant and absen-
tee landlord, Obloroov (Oleg Tabakov), who lies in
bed all day in a stupor of sleep, daydreaming, and
sheer Ustlessness. In the 19th-century, "Oblomo-
vism" became the epithet for a philosophy and a way
of life, yet there is a bit of Qblomov in everyone.

SHININO, THE-<2hr3. 26m., '80) StAnley Kubrick's
attempt at an epic of the uncanny is undermined by
his own perversely cold and undramatic style. A
family of three (Jack Nicholson, Shelley Duvall, and
little Danny Lloyd) signs on as caretakers at a snow-
bound Colorado resort; their peace and love for one
another are destroyed by visions, madness, ghosts,
and violence. In Kubrick and Diane Johnson's adap-
tation of Stephen King's best-seller, the father doesn't
undergo a transformation to insanity— he seems in-
seme from the beginning— and the moral and dra-
matic tension of the story collapses. Who needs
another nut-on -the- loose movie? There are a few ter-
rific thrills, and some eerie momenta of dislocation
that only Kubrick could achieve, but most oi the
movie is unfelt, unscary, and bizarrely heavy-handed.
It's the first pompous haunted-house movie. With
Scatman Crothers. R. 650. 656. 659, 748
STARDUST M£MORIES-<lhr. 31m., '80) Woody
Allen's little cup of poison. He plays Sandy Bates, a
famous director of comedies and one serious film who
martyrs himself to his foolish, adoring fans at a roeet-
the-filmmaker weekend sponsored by a prominent
critic. The movie is Woody's imitation of 8 1/2, the
overexposed Fellini masterpiece about a director
panicking and coming apart at the seams. In Woody's
version, the director is not suffering from a specific
crisis so much as from lifelong despair. He wants to
be serious while everyone wants him to make come-
dies; he can't answer the big philosophical questions
about death, and all the rest of that. He turns his fans
—anyone who admires him— into freaks, evidently be-
cause he feels unworthy of adulation. The anguished
mixture of boasting and self -laceration is exhausting
—even a little sordid. With Marie-Christine Barrault,
Jessica Harper, and Charlotte Rampling as a tor-
tured, Diane Keaton-ish actress. Pretentious black-
and-white cinematography by Gordon Willis. PG. 4
* STUNT MAN, THE— (2hrs. 9m., '80) A paranoid
Vietnam veteran (Steve Railsback) on the lam from
the police wanders into a World War I movie as it is
being shot and has trouble telling the movie from
reality. Accidentally killing the stunt man, he
becomes his replacement, and people keep playing
tricks on him. Written by Lawrence B. Marcus (from
Paul Brodeur's novel) and directed by Richard Rush,
The Stunt Man is repetitive and pushy, but also clever
and exciting— we experience the stunt man's confu-
sion ourselves, and we never quite regain our bal-
ance. Featuring a marvelous comic performance by
Peter O'Toole as the domineering and brilliant son of
a bitch who is directing the film-within-the film. With
Allen Goorwits and Barbara Hershey. R. 16, 58, 806

*TESS— (2hrs. 50m., '80) Roman Polanski's adapta-
tion of Thomas Hardy's novel Tesv of tha D'Urb&r-
villes is extraordinarily well crafted but a little too
placid for the true Hardy spirit. Polanski gets Hardy's
feeling for the Dorset countryside and the passing of
traditional rural customs, but misses the anguish
seething under the surface. As the proud, tragic Tess,
Nastassia Kinski is as beautiful as the young Ingrid
Bergman, but she's not quite an actress yet. She holds
her positions like a model, and there's very little
modulation from one mood to the next. Leigh Lawrson
overdoes the smarminess as her upper-class seducer,
but Peter Firth is ardent as the high-minded Angel
Clare. Exquisite cinematography by Ghislain CIo-
quet and the late Geoffrey Unsworth. 20. 38, 50. 535.

it THIEF— <2hrs. 6m., '81) James Caan stars in one of
those surly existential exercises about a criminal who
insists on controlling his own destiny and winds up
taking on everybody. [Point Blank is the classic of the
genre.) Even if you've seen this sort of thing before,
you may enjoy the dark, sleek, anti-sensual surface of
the film (most of it was shot in Chicago at night); the
explosive violence, the intense concentration of the
safecracking episodes; the murderous underworld
types, with their hair-raising threats and professional
jargon. In his first feature film, TV writer -director Mi-
chael Mann shows a terrific grasp of suspense me-
chanics and a fanatical adoration of his loser/
outsider hero. With Tuesday Weld. R. 1 1, 235, 442,

VOYAGE EN DOUCE-(lhr. 37m.. '81) If men can hit
the road together in a movie, why not women? No
reason at all, but this female buddy-buddy movie,
starring Dominique Sanda and Geraldine Chaplin,
isn't what we've all been waiting for. It's almost suf-
focatingly precious, giggly, inane. The women un-
dress, flirt, but then do nothing. They tell grave
stones and then adroit that they made them up. The
director, Michel Deville, seems to be amusing him-
self with a male fantasy of what women do and say
when there are no men around. 89
Revivals
ADAM'S RIB-(lhr 41m., '49) Katharine Hepburn
and Spencer Tracy as everyone's ideal sophisticated
married couple, this time as two lawyers on opposite
sides of a case in a dated but still tremendously ap-
pealing comedy. David Wayne oils around Hepburn
and sings her a Cole Porter song, but Judy Holliday,
as a hilariously sly quivering bundle of angst, almost
walks off with the picture. Dir. George Cukor 39
ALL ABOUT EVE— (2hrs. 13m., '50) Bette Davis has
said that if she's remembered for only one movie she
hopes it will be this one. It's a superb drama, witty
and satiric, of the Broadway theater and its people.
Joseph Mankiewicz won Oscars both for wnriting and
directing it; George Sanders won one as best sup-
porting actor. 4
APOCALYPSE NOW-(2hrs 28m., '79) For three-
quarters of its length, Francis Coppola's work is
masterful— a tragic, surrealist Vietnam-war epic that
grows in power and beauty as it comes closer to hal-
lucination. But then, suddenly, the film falls to pieces,
and the effect is devastating. With Martin Sheen,
Marlon Brando, and Robert Duvall. 82
BADLANDS— ( 1 hr. 24m , '74) The very impressive
writing-directing debut of Terence Malick, about a
mass murderer and his impressionable girlfriend,
with convincing, realistic performances by Martin
Sheen and Sissy Spacek. 13
BEYOND THE VALLEY OF THE DOLLS-(lhr
49m., '70) It has nothing to do with 77ie Valley of the
Dolls. Chicago Sun-Times film critic Roger Ebert set
out to write a camp/trash outrage, incorporating ev-
ery absurdity, cliche, and bit of nonsense he could
think of. The whole thing was whipped up into a wild
storm of sex and violence by master shlockmeister
Russ Meyer. It's fitfully entertaining. . very late at
night. Starring several of Russ Meyer's silicone won-
ders. 13
BILL OF DIVORCEMENT, A-(lhr 16m , '32) Ka

BUDDY HOLLY STORY. THE-(lhr S3m , '78)
This sincere bio-pic traces the career of the awkward
but self-assured West Texas boy with the goofy smile
and the Clark Kent glasses who became one of the
most creative of the early rock singer-composers and
then died in a plane crash (in 1959) at the age of 22.
The movie glorifies Holly a bit too much, but no mat-
ter; Gary Busey is brilliant in the title role. Written by
Robert Gittler. Dir Steve Rash 27
BUS STOP-(lhr 36m., *56) A fast, rowdy comedy
about an exuberant cowboy and the saloon singer he
sets his sights on. With Marilyn Monroe, Don Murray,
Arthur O'Connell, Betty Field, and Robert Bray Dir
Joshua Logan. 75
CABARET-(2hr8., '72) An effective Bob Fosse musi-
cal from the Broadway hit, with brilliant photography
and a visually persuasive recreation of pre-war Berlin
at its wicked worst. Joel Grey's performance is su-
perb; Liza Minnelli and Michael York are charming.
13
CITIZEN KANE— (2hrs., '41) The greatest American
film. This allegory and cautionary tale of American
success, told in terms of a thinly veiled Randolph
Hearst, is Orson Welles's finest achievement as di-
rector, and he's not bad at acting either. Unfortu-
nately, the script, by Herman Mankiewicz. though
clever, is somewhat shaJlow. Everything else, how-
ever, remains impressive after all these years and
despite repeated viewing. With Joseph Cotten, Doro-
thy Comingore, and Everett Sloane. 97
DAMNED. THE-(2hrs. 30m.. '69) A masterwork by
Italian director Luchino Visconti that stands with the
great movie works. The rise and fall of Nazism is
brilliantly evoked through a haunting fictional look
at the power struggle within an entrenched German
industrial family. The film becomes a hypnotic de-
scent into evil, greed, murder, and moral sickness.
With Dirk Bogarde, Ingrid Thulin. Helmut Berger,
and Charlotte Rampling. 97
DAYS OF HEAVEN-<Ihr. 3lm.. '78) An oddly une-
rotic triangle drama set in Texas in 1915, this movie
is extraordinarily handsome but perversely uninvolv-

Adams, and Linda Manz. Dir. Terence Malick. 13, 47
FREAKS— (Ihr 4m., '32) Tod Browning's classic
which takes place in a circus sideshow where the
so-called freaks exhibit a more human and civilized
society than the "normal" people who surround them.
10
ITHAPPENEDONE NIGHT-(lhr. 4Sm . '34) Clark
Gable's macho charm seems dated now, but Clau-
dette Colbert is, as usual, exquisite in this comedy
about a runaway heiress and a newspaperman who
fall in love on a cross-country chase. Not as good as
the faster-paced screwball comedies of the Depres-
sion, but still a classic. 39
JONAH WHO WILL BE 25 IN THE YEAR 2000-
(Ihr. 50m.. '76) In French; Eng. titles An Alain Tan-
ner film composed of rambling episodes from the
lives of eight good people, Genevans or French, all
of them radical survivors from the sixties looking to
make some sense out of their communal life together
in the seventies. There are a few pleasing perform-
ances, notably from Jacques Denis, Raymond Bus-
sidres, and the incomparable Miou-Miou. Art critic
and scenarist John Berger worked on the screenplay.

LETTER FROM AN UNKNOWN WOMAN-(Ihr

mental tale of unrequited love in old Vienna, based
on the novel by Stefan Zweig, breathlessly acted by
Louis Jourdan and Joan Fontaine. Dir. Max Ophuls.
4
NEW YORK, NEW YORK-(2hrs. 22m., '77) Martin
Scorsese's fascinating, perversely dislikable musical
about a white be-bop player (Robert De Niro), a man
ahead of his time, and his marriage to a big-band
singer (Liza Minnelli). Scorsese uses clearly artificial
forties- musical sets, but stages a discordant story on
them. The contrast between the style and meaning of
the movie annoys a lot of people. 61
NIAGARA— (Ihr , 29m., '53) MarUyn Monroe at her
lushest dominates this steamy melodrama of sex and
murder, amusingly set in America's happy-
honeymoon haven. The pace is pawky and the vrrit-
ing clich6d, but Monroe's performance as the greedy
temptress, plus an exciting sequence of the Falls,
make this movie reasonably enjoyable. In appropri-
ately lurid color. 75
O LUCKY MAN!-(3hrs , '73) A sparkling, witty, and
perceptive film of dazzling variety and multitudinous
delights, a triumph for director Lindsay Anderson,
writer David Sherwin, and actor Malcolm McDowell.
4
PAT AND MIKE-(lhr., 34m . '52) Perfection. Ruth
Gordon and Garson Kanin wrote the screenplay;
George Cukor directed; Katharine Hepburn as a
multi-talented athlete; Spencer Tracy as a tough-talk-
ing coach. Before anyone knew the word, this movie
explained sexism better than anything else; it is also,
miraculously, one of the most completely charming
romances on film. With Aldo Ray as a dumb boxer.
39
REBECCA— (Ihr. 55m., '40) Joan Fontaine is the terri-
fied bride, Laurence Olivier the glowering lord of the
manor, and Judith Anderson the evil housekeeper in
this enthralling modern Gothic. Daphne Du Maurier
wrote the original book, and Alfred Hitchcock di-
rects with a characteristic blend of fear, wit, and sex,
75
REPUIiSION-(lhr. 43m , '65) The galvanic Roman
Polanski film starring Catherine Deneuve as the re-
pressed manslasher. Terrifying and grisly, with a
good deal of material that is more clinical than dra-
matic. 75
SOMETHING FOR EVER YONE-< Ihr. 55m . '70)
Based on a peculiar novel, The Cook, this film is
queerer yet, with a murky absurdist plot, pretentious
symbolism, grossly exaggerated performances, and
lots of nice Austrian scenery going to waste. Directed
by Hal Prince, who says it was butchered in the stu-
dio. With Michael York and Angela Lansbury. 13
WALTZ OF THE TOREADORS-(l hr. 50m., '62) An
erratic, uncertain, and elaborate British version of
Jean Anouilh's "dramatic comedy" about a retired
general (Peter Sellers) in pursuit of lost youth. With
Dany Robin, Margaret Leighton, John Fraser. and
Cyril Cusack. Dir. John Guillermin. 10
YELLOW SUBMARINE-(Ihr 30m . '69) A charm-
ing animated feature containing the Beatles, their
music, a fiesta of color, and a barrel of gentle wit.
Pepperland, the peaceful home of the Lonely Hearts
Club Band, is attacked by Blue Meanies, and a won-
derful escape odyssey follows Dir. George Running.
13
YOJIMBO-(lhr. 50m., '62) In Japanese; Eng. titles.
Top entertainment on many levels, set in a mountain
village in the 1860s and packed with drama, humor,
and satire of the stupidities and evils of war. The
direction and acting are magnificent. With the mar-
velous Toshiro Mifune. Dir. Akira Kurosawa. 4

NEW YORK MAGAZINE COMPETITION
COMPETITION NUMBER 419 BY MARY ANN MADDEN
My dennist wears designer shoits,
Wears Jourdan shoes to drill in;
She loves them alligator shoits
And just finds Calvin Trillin.
Above, the name-game quatrain. Competitors are invited to compose four
lines of verse to rhyme ABAB and conclude with a familiar name.
Results of Competition 416. in which you
were asked to provide the whimsical etymol-
ogy of an existing word.
Report: Some misinterpretation of just what
was meant by etymology. Syllable-by-syl-
lable redefinition per the current meaning($)
did not fill the bill. We required fanciful im-
agined derivations. In other words, what this
wasn't was a Fractured Definitions competi-
tion. If you really want to hear about it.
Which you probably don't. And all. Dupli-
cations: pumpernickel, gubernatorial, boo-
merang. ragamufTm. Unrelated items. I
think.
